This is why I have only issued one T in eight years of varsity officiating in Minnesota. Most coaches behave like this. They will question a call now and then, but they will never get personal with you. I see most officials run off the floor after the game to get away from the angry mobs. We usually stand at half court with the ball until the teams have shook hands and dispersed until we hand the ball to the table and then go to the locker room. Usually, the coaches will thank us for doing a good job officiating the game. Maybe this is part of the "Minnesota Nice" or maybe we just are confident in our ability to call a good game that we aren't concerned with confrontation after the game. Or maybe we are just stupid for doing this?
