Thoughts from a coach

Ironically, he later apologized when we upgraded a foul on the other team to an Intentional. He said, "Unfortunately, it is too late to take back my earlier statement and the 'T'". Again, I SOOO wanted to say "We are just trying to keep things even. You know one bad judgement call, one good judgement call!!" But I just smiled and moved on. Yep, needed a new personal filter after the game!!

I don't see it as being sensitive; that's an even more direct charge on your integrity than a normal appeal to the foul count, IMO. I couldn't care less what he actually thinks of me, but he needs to know that comment isn't acceptable.

That's fine, like I said, to me that is not a big attack on my integrity. His later statement certainly was. IMO, the first comment was vague and general while the second one was specific and personal. Would I have a problem if one of my partners T'd em for that? Not at all. We all have our hot buttons. (Personally, I LOATHE the Double Windshield Wiper Wave Off)
What I should have told him is "Why are you asking me? I am the one who called the only foul on the other team!!"
