Loved the annoying coach getting shown up

[ballgame99]

I need to get better at handling these coaches; had one last week in a summer shootout game that was riding me about how the other team was "reaching" (both teams were reaching and it was an ugly game). In hindsight I should have had a conversation with him at that point to cool him down, basically to say, hey both teams are reaching but reaching isn't a foul unless there is enough contact to call a foul. Instead he just got hotter and hotter, and kept commenting how we "missed that one", or "that was an easy one" if something didn't get called. You could tell this attitude was rubbing off on his players too. Just not a fun game to officiate.
