The coach wasn't happy and said something to the effect, "I've got case studies! I am allowed!"

Case studies? Really? Did the coach have them in his/her pocket or did s/he have to return to the dugout to get them?

He did ask me to read them. I thought I left case studies behind in college courses.


And he returned to the dugout with his pitching coach. Yet he never did find those case studies.

Recent discussions of charged or not:
1) coach stands at circle with pitcher, talks to her during practice pitches
2) same, except pitcher delays practice pitching during talk
3) pitcher calls time, walks to dugout to converse

What do you say?

BTW, I remember some message board that had the option for posting as a poll rather than a question..... sounds like you could use that.
