What to do when a coach just does not know a rule and insists that you are wrong?

[BretMan]

How I'd probably handle it:

Coach: (Offers incorrect rule interpretation.)

Me: (Offers correct rule interpretation.)

Coach: "No, that isn't right...blah, blah, blah..."

Me: "Coach, do you wish to file a protest?".

If he does, we handle it.

If not...

Me: "Coach, we're finished discussing this. Please return to your dugout."

His reaction to my request will determine if he remains in the game as a participant or not.

How I'd like to handle it...

"Coach, you seem pretty sure of yourself and seem to think you have a better understanding of these rules than I do. Let's make this interesting. Fifty bucks says I'm right on each of the rules you're arguing. Now, that's fifty bucks for each one of the rules you think I have wrong. After the game, we'll grab your rule book- you do have a rule book, don't you? If not we'll grab mine. Meet me over at the wiener wagon and we'll go over each rule point-by-point.

Oh yeah...I accept cash, check or credit card!"
