The coach is making a personal attack when they start this nonsense. They are either accusing you of complete incompetence or cheating, and I don't find either funny or deserving of a snappy comeback.

The smart ones get that they have crossed the line and recognize that this was a warning, the others don't and get whacked.
IMHO, that is far from a personal attack. It's just a coach doing what coaches do... being an advocate for their team. They think they see thier kids being fouled and we aren't calling it and/or they see fouls being called on their kids that they don't think were fouls. They are seeing the game through the biased glasses that all coaches wear. You can address the comments, but if you think that's a personal attack, you're going to be setting a record for "whacks."

A coach that throws a clipboard and screams, "Call that F'ing foul!" is being an advocate for his team too. It does not mean it's not personal or appropriate.

Also where did I say it was a automatic whack? I said they get the "WHAT" warning and if they keep it up they get whacked?
