I agree with Rut here, there is a decided double standard in how things are viewed, in this case you would be asked if you are thin skinned, or unprofessional as Rut alluded to but the coach gets Carte blanche.
We have to be above it all.
The best you can do at that point is say coach we are done here and move on. The lines of communication are pretty much closed for the rest of the night too.
Once they play the Knuckle head card it is time to move on.
