I'd say a head coach who's had a poor season, is frustrated, and comes running out of the dugout yelling over a simple no-stop balk call has already blown his fuse and is just looking to blame the umpire for his team's poor performance. He's also looking for a quick exit. I simply showed him the door.

(Having said that, I certainly don't hold a grudge against him and would not treat him any differently because of my having ejected him.)
