BadAxe,
Don't be offended by the quick exit. We teach that once the game is over, get the hell out of there. And there is good reason: Handing around only incourages that one idiot to finally do something.
In my time I have seen all out brawls between parents of youth players (baseball and football). Since I'm not a cop I have no business hanging around. Some may say I can be a witness. I say let somebody else who isn't a potential target be a witness, I'm heading to the car.
Thats life in the world that we live in.
Now, it's not like our move is very noticeable. In fact, most people don't see us leave unless there is some controversy concerning the final play of the game.
As somebody has already stated, thanks for the handshake, but those kids will remember how you acted during the game more than they will the postgame routine.
