He says "Oh you guys are just missing all kinds of stuff, sir." So I put air in the whistle and whack him. Here I would've said something to the HC. The person running their mouth may have just been a dad who wants to sit behind the bench and chirp. Who knows, coach may have been waiting for a reason to get the annoying guy away from his team. Later facts change this, but at the time I don't know if you knew it was the AC.

He starts out onto the court saying "Wait a minute, you need to pay attention to the game and ignore what's going on over here." Lol

After the game right after we observe the handshakes, the assistant who got the first T walks up and says "Can I ask you guys a question?" and I didn't really want to. Then don't, you handled this great. Some officials like to blab to coaches and others don't. Done correctly there's nothing wrong with either method.

I feel like I catch more crap from coaches because I look young (I'm 31 but look like I'm maybe 22) and it wears me out. Maybe it's in my head, but I don't see the older guys on my crew have coaches push them as much it seems like they try to get away with with me. Make up for it with how you carry yourself and quality articulation.
