I don't know why
you were offended. If you were the coach, you have a right to be annoyed. But offended?

I disagree. It is not professional at all. As much as you overstate the "offended" part, you understate the "not professional" part. He was showing no respect to the game, the players, the coaches, and to his "profession."

Well, he is (presumably) an adult. It's his risk to himself. I don't see it as a danger to anyone else.

I did go speak to the tournament director and the head ump ... Did I do the right thing?

Yes, if you were the coach. No if you weren't... It's the coach's job to handle this. But, even if you were a fan, it you handled it nicely & didn't overplay the whining, the umpire in question needed to get talked to, so in the end, good presumably happened.
