Coach drags out the rule book

[bob jenkins]

I would NEVER welcome a coach "pulling out the rule book" whether during the game or just after it ends.

I'd be much more likley to listen to a coach who ASKS, "Can we check the rule book?" or (even better) "Can you check with your partners?"

Partners already confered in my OP.

I hear that. Good point.
