That one aint gonna fly.

I spent my time reffing boys and girls teams from the Christian schools, lousy and otherwise...and JH...and cyo...and aau...and other assorted rec leagues. That's where I learned how to deal with coaches.

At some point I decided I wasn't going to be the door mat for some frustrated wannabe who's idea of coaching is to shooot his mouth off whenever things don't go his way.

As I keep saying, coaches are like big dogs. They'll take as much as you are prepared to give them and they'll back off when you make them.
