Baseball, coaches spend most of the game yelling at their players and "begging for calls" - "good pitch", "what was wrong with that one" "come on blue call it both ways" "that was low" etc., what recourse do we have? Sure I can shut them up, I can eject them, but their is NO penalty for their team. Often, it HELPS their team as many coaches get ejected in baseball on purpose.
Anyway, just what I see ... might be different in others parts of the country.

If I hear a coach offer up his opinion on plays (travel, double dribble, that's a foul, etc), it's going to get addressed fairly quickly. Normally, a quick quiet word is enough. If it doesn't get addressed, that attitude spreads to the players and Ts are more likely. I also don't tolerate screaming at me.
