Two seasons ago, BJV/V double-header:
BJV game - A gentleman shows up a few minutes into the game, sits at the other end of the bench, and proceeds to give us grief on calls. I go the the JV Coach, and say, "I need you to tell the gentleman on the other end of your bench to keep quiet! I don't want to hear from him again!"
Coach replies, "He's the Varsity Head Coach. I can't tell him that. He's my boss!"
I respond, "He's not your boss for this game. If he costs you a T, you'll wish you had talked to him! But, it's your decision!"
So, he did tell his "boss" what I said. And the V Coach quit his critique of our work. Then, after the 3rd quarter, he left the bench.
During the Varsity game, he never said a thing to us.
