From a coach's perspective? I believe this is a bit more accurate.




Sorry, it's a Friday after a very long week...

I had one T in 10 years coaching. I did get thrown out of one baseball game, though.

How did I feel about it? Even though it was pretty much planned to keep my players in the game, I still felt embarrassed by it. No animosity towards the official.

As a coach, I never bothered to 'work' the officials - what a waste of time. At first, I completely ignored the officials. Then, during a winless season out of desperation for an edge, I really studied the rulebook closely and began to TALK to the officials about rules. I actually got some calls changed that way.

What I've found now that I officiate is that the guys that chirp the most are the ones who don't know how to coach. They don't have anything to say to their players, so they yell at the officials.
