Just a suggestion....fwiw.....

If a coach asks to talk to you post-game, tell the coach that you will do so only if he has a question about the rules that he would like answered. Tell him right up front before any discussion that if he just wants to b!tch about anything, there will be no discussion. If he does start to b!tch, then do exactly what you did above. Turn your back and leave. Nothing that you will say will ever change their minds.

Don't ever let these clowns get to you either.
