Don't beat yourself up about this incident. This situation appears to be one that a "T" should have been awarded early.

Let me offer some insight from a local AD that has helped me feel at ease when I am forced to issue a "T" on a berating coach: "The gym is another classroom and coaches are teachers. Their conduct should be molded to the standards that are acceptable (expected) in the classroom."

Yes, some "teachers" (coaches) can be very enthusiastic or animated. If they opt to "vent" about a disagreeable call they better make it tactfully and briefly and then move on... anything other than that is "teaching" the wrong lesson and needs adjustment.
