Willie - certainly I can see why you use that technique in your position. However, the argument seems to be that if a coach is telling you that your calls are garbage, he is just disagreeing with the call, not your ability to make it. I don't agree with that. IMHO, the coach is accusing you of not being able to make proper calls regardless of how he phrases it. In other words, he is stating you should not be out there making the calls, because you are incompetent to do so.

To me, attacking the action is attacking the person who made the action. After all, isn't a person's competency judged by their ability to make correct decisions? I feel that when a coach attacks my competency, he is attacking me as a person.

I guess I'll have the opportunity to put my theory to the test today, as I have three games this afternoon.
