And again, absolutely NO Way you should have given the coach ANY explanation at all when he is this clearly out of line.

Like I said before, I know it's much easier in hindsight but you, and any official, really cant tolerate this kind of behavior. I'm not sure how experienced you are, but I know it took me a while to truly feel comfortble with issuing Ts and knowing how to respond to coaches who pull BS like this. You did stick him but I think a flagrant T is what was needed here. But we live and learn. Thanks for sharing this.

Yup. And after I assess the flagrant T, I'm not explaining anything -- that coach no longer exists.
