A Multiple Choice Exercise

[McMac]

I'll bite.

Head Coach:
Most likely: School, AD, Players
Least likely: Sport, Staff, Media

Me:
Most likely: Players, Crew, Assigner
Least likely: Media, Fans, Coaches

Philosophically, we both are there for the players, but the coaches are only worried about their players. So when they feel something has wronged their team, they try to make things right for their team. Whereas, as officials, we are there to adjudicate the game in the interest of fairness for all. And this is where the rub comes in between officials and coaches.
