And that's probably why I don't like it. I don't like when coaches show me up and there's a part of me that thinks that me putting my hand up for the coach (and everyone else) to see puts a coach into a corner, and there's nothing more dangerous than a cornered rat.  |

You are right on brother !!!!! I hate to keep using "NBA Philosophies" with regard to NHFS / NCAA, but Scott Foster has told a bunch of us to put our hands down by our hips, more along the lines of an "easy coach".
Giving the stop sign (when two adults are involved) is absurd. We wouldn't want it and why should we treat another adult like a child.
Just think that too many of us think because we put on the stripes, it gives us
unlimited authority whenever we choose.......
