However, I'm suggesting that 30 seconds of video doesn't always tell the story. There is a ton of reading between the lines here. My sole point is: Don't think there are no positive outcomes to his actions, and that you understand the entire context from 30 seconds of video. But, yes, if you feel he is an idiot, an idiot he will be to you.
You honestly think there were positive outcomes associated with the behavior shown in that video??? Wow...just, wow.

Everyone has seen/heard/been involved with coaches and teams who think they can get everyone "fired up" by getting a T. Have never bought that, and probably never will. Generally when a T is given to a coach for this type of behavior, the whining and complaining from players increases. If this coach can't find a better way to "fire up" his kids than making an a$$ out of himself and shoving kids around, then yes - an idiot he will be.
