I am glad that you recognize that you were out of line here, but remember, no matter how tired or annoyed you are, you represent not just yourself, but everyone of us in this profession. There have been many times in this hot Texas sun, 100 degrees or better, where I have worked as many as seven games in a day. No matter how silly a coach or a question might seem, I have always tried to maintain a professional attitude. We cannot be prone to temper at any time while we are on the field.
