However, put all those actions together -- technical.

I did call a Technical foul. The Coach of V told me I should talk to his player because it is important game. I told him all the more reason for the player to retain his composure.

No, coach YOU should have talked to your team and told them not to do anything stupid, and to keep their composure, etc, because it's an important game.

I usually have a set respond to the "importance" statement. I don't let the "importance" of a game effect my judgement. Stupid behavior is stupid behavior in any circumstance. That's why its called STUPID. Duh!

Sounds like a T party to me. V1 just got invited.

When a coach says I should have talked to their player, I usually respond with that technical isn't on me, it's on him.

I respond with "You should have talked to them when the season started".

How about this, "Have one of your 6 assistants talk to him?"

Too much?

I might use that in a summer game.

"Coach, we've got you and the captains for talking to him."
