Table side with Ts and disqualifications.

I don't think your interpreter used the right words. "Defending your calls" and "conflict" bring to mind an adversarial relationship between coach and ref. Maybe he should have said "at some point you are going to have to discuss your calls" and "if you are always going away from discussion" rather than the words he used. As refs, we should be open to civil dialogue with coaches. IMHO, once it reaches the "defending your calls" and "conflict" stage, the communication between ref and coach is no longer productive.

Whatever the language (and I was trying to be as accurate with his comments as possible) he used, it does not really matter. He takes the position that you should not have to run when you T someone up or DQ a player. I happen to agree. I guess why all game you are going table side and now in this one situation we are going to do something different.
