Choices...1) Ignore. 2) Warn. 3) Whack. 4) Laugh about it with partners over post game beverages.

There are, of course, several possible combinations of the above...

So, which did you do?

Probably 1 and 4 for me. But possibly 3, depending on what has happened with the coach previously in the game.

I'm going to hold off answering...I would like to see a few more responses.

I will tell you that at least one of your "choices" is what would happen in this "hypothetical".

If the coach was already warned, he'd likely whack. JR didn't believe in multiple warnings.

I would add another option for me at least. Confront the coach about the comment directly if you are standing right there. I guess that is warning, but if I did not have to yell I would likely say something.

Peace

It's like a lot of other comments, as much how it was said as what was actually said. If it's directed at nobody in particular, just musing aloud to oneself, I'd probably ignore it. (the same tone as a person saying "Oh, no! I can't believe it's raining again.) If it was in an angry tone obviously directed at me, it could be worth a whack.

I had a coach yell that at me once. Of course, this guy was my partner. D'oh!

True...OP did say that the official was running past the bench when it was said, so that's not really an option at the moment. Next dead ball maybe, or when we come back down to his end. Personally not a big fan of ignoring comments like that from a coach...so I would either warn or whack.

I'm likely to stick him. If not, the warning would be extremely clear.

The coach says the team is getting homered?

Whackerooni. No doubt. He's calling your INTEGRITY into question.

"Coach, I'll be glad to answer your question about a call, but I will not put up with any further comments along those lines."

(assuming nothing has been said so far, and the coach has been reasonably well behaved)

I had this happen over Christmas. An out of town coach was saying something - basically that we were cheating for a Vegas team. I addressed it immediately and the coach thought he should have a parting shot by repeating a variation of the same. Technical foul.

I wonder who that coach was? Hmmmmmmmmmm

BTW, that same coach got stuck in a Christmas tournament here too for a similar comment. Well that is if we are talking about the same guy. I wonder who that would be?

Peace
