I feel sorry for those of you who qualify all coaches as being less than you. Misplaced arrogance is in evidence with such posts.
If all you experience are coaches who have problems with your calls then you may want to invest in a mirror. If you are worried that a coach is trying to get an advantage over an opponent then you should hang up the gear. Considering the insecurity displayed towards other officials by some of you it is not surprising that coaches are a threat.
I learned long ago that the best compliment a coach gave me was worth exactly the same as when he barked after I made a call that went against his team. Coaches are only rats to those who blow calls consistently and need someone to blame.
I coach my son because I want him to revere the game, be safe and have fun. I umpire because someone taught me the same things long ago.
