You really need to stop letting guys walk all over you.
First of all do not overreact. Coaches tell us how terrible we are all the time and a lot of officials do nothing. Let us not act like this does not take place or that you would be surprised if a T is not given. Everything has a context and a tone to it. When a coach gives the foul count they are questioning your integrity and I rarely see a T given for that immediately. I have had coaches make suggestions about the make-up of the crew or where they think we live and not gotten a T.

I seriously doubt that allowing these have anything to do with someone walking all over anyone. If anything I would wonder why you were so thinned skinned if every time someone said something to you negative you were giving a T. That could also be a wrong evaluation as well. We all do not have the same tolerance level for these things, which is why some are considered good at GM issues and others are not. You cannot pull a comment out of the sky and always how the situation should be handled.

Peace
