I'm a huge Hawkeye fan and this whole thing leaves me disappointed. I have to ask, though, what you expected from his apology.

How about, for once, the Coach actually apologizes. Something along the lines of

"I am really sorry that I lost it. I know better, and I need to keep myself under control. I especially want to apologize to Mr. Whoever and Mr. Whatshisname, the two officials that I 'went off' on. They are excellent officials and did not deserve the abuse I heaped on them."

Wishful thinking?? Yes...

I've had this happen a few times - messages like this forwarded through an assignor. Maybe it's the cynic in me, but I've always assumed the apology was written more to get the coach out of trouble than from sincerity.
