Later I called a travel on his team, and the coach gave me the "call it both ways" so I tried out the line: "What did you see on that play coach?" to which he obniouxsly yelled "What have YOU been seeing this whole game?"

I have him a "Tech" but I felt like my "game management techniques" wound up baiting him into the situation instead of defusing it.

I'd have thrown up the "stop sign" after "call it both ways", because that's when he's beyond acceptable chatter. That also removes the "baiting" issue. If you stop-sign him and he still won't quit, WHACK-A-RAMA

On another thread a couple weeks ago, one of you folks had a great line:

"Call it both ways = Call it MY WAY"
