How to talk to Officials

1) I personally feel that a coach who is also an official should be held to a higher standard than a normal coach.

2) Coach A, all game "travel, call it both ways, 3 in the key, over the back, he's reaching, etc..." I finally give him the stop sign and say that's enough. He tells me he wants the T, so i give it to him. He set an example for the kids, because 2 T's were then called on bench personel by my partner.

1) I don't agree with that at all. I think that all coaches should be held to an equal standard. Our job is to be equally fair, and you can't be that if you start using different criteria to deal with different coaches.

2) Question? Coach A got a direct T, and he also should have have got 2 indirect T's for the 2T's that were called on his bench personnel. Did you eject him as the rules call for?
