Other than the OP, no one else has mentioned if this has happened to them during a game. It hasn't happened to me. One may think they may react in a situation like this but until the time comes no one really knows.

Example: Team A up by 10 with about two minutes left in the game. They lose the big lead on a press by Team B and now there is 10 seconds left in the game. Game is tied (or within a point or two either way) and Team A's coach calls TO and goes off in one of the tirades described in this thread toward his team.

If you really are going to call it when a team is down 20 you better call it now. It is possible that some of you may very well do so (and, yes, I know what the rules say)...but I would believe you are a minority.

I agree there is no room in the game for it. I'm a varsity coach in a different sport and it isn't tolerated from me or my players. However, a coach may very well be using that language in the huddle in a nine inch voice where you can't hear it and that is just as bad.

Anyway, if anyone has called it, please speak up and tell us how things transpired afterwards.
