I've worked games where the coaching box wasn't an option. You can bet coaches find a way to get on their feet. This guy would have been up to complain, got his technical foul, and he wouldn't have...

I wasn't aware he was filed. You're likely right. My whole issue is, even if he has never demonstrated this sort of tendency before, or been caught, he has now sufficiently demonstrated to me that...

I'm not judge and jury, I admit that. The DA already did that when he decided not to file assault charges. I'm no DA, so I won't pretend to judge him too harshly. But to consider this behavior...

He may well have such a reputation. I'm just saying I have a hard time believing this is the first time he's been this stressed.

I also have a hard time believing coaching a basketball team is...

Agreed. I'm doubtful that this was his first violent outburst.

I should have worded that better. I don't mind discussing how the T was called or where he was standing when he did it. My issue here is, primarily, with those who want to discuss the b/c call...

Frankly, he didn't have time. Your advice here would have to be applied virtually in every single close game where a coach might have a call go against him. Most of will work 20+ years, calling...

If he'd had karate training, he would have known that.

On the other hand, the coach did have to move to hit him. He moved quite a distance, actually, pretty quickly.

Yep, and I stopped caring about that with the assault. I'm willing to discuss that, within reason, when a coach gets a technical foul after a missed call.

Assault and battery changes that for...

He now has an arrest record that he has to answer to for background checks. He's teaching (special ed, from what I have red) kids in school, and I'd be shocked if this was his first time physically...

He can shake hands and forgive after sentencing. Hell, he can even testify as a character witness in the sentencing hearing for all I care.

I understand it's his decision whether or not to press...

In the video I saw, he was at arms length before the coach lunged and head-butted him. I think smitty offered the most reasonable explanation for the proximity as it was. He was getting into the...

I can see that. I was more addressing those who were writing, "nothing justifies the assault, but the call was wrong." I'm just not interested in discussing the accuracy of his call.

As for the...

I'm all for discussing plays and seeing what we as a group could have done differently in most situations. However, once a coach assaults (or batters) an official in the course of a game, I'm no...
