Not at all. I say things all the time they don't like and that I know they will not like. I just see no benefit in telling a partner "good call" and only see it as an opportunity to cause unnecessary trouble. Why invite trouble?

I also see it as a bit demeaning to my partner to give my approval of his/her calls on the court. I trust that they know it was a good call. If I have something to say to them about it, it will usually be in the locker room.
