Well that is not what the conversation was about or Rich's comments seemed to be based on. I am sure he can speak for himself, but if you have a coach being an a$$ all the time about every other call, no you do not have to listen to any of their requests from my point of view. And there comes a time when requests are certainly not reasonable or when given an answer there is an interrpution or the answer is not going to be accepted. And you can say that is wrong, but that is your opinion and you have the right to stick to that, but that does not apply to everyone. I do not care what coaches think for the most part and I feel it is a waste of time to think that heavily about their thoughts. It is not how I officiate and certainly not a major concern of mine if they think I am unapproachable. I have a job to do and that is to officiate, not answer every question they have. And what some consider reasonable is also subjective. Because if every play you are asking a question as to why you called something or telling me what I called, that is not being reasonable in my eyes.
