I can't really picture you being less critical of stupid questions, even before you started officiating. . . :p

(I was going to put "fans" in that mix, but I think I already know the answer.)
Great question. I appreciate the effort coaches put into the game and understand their emotions a lot more. The same with players, especially with the older players as they learn the game.

+ 2. For example. Last night attending a local semi-pro baseball game with my family. Questionable call @ 1st base results in batter and base coach both ejected from game. I notice my spouse appluading along with other home teams fans. (home team playera and coach ejected). I asked her why she is condoning unsporting behavior. She of course had no good answer, and I gave my opinion on the subject. I got the "rolling of the eyes" and I let it drop.
