Message: [QUOTE="Deuga, post: 1550710, member: 5551"] I'm curious about something. When Shafer got called for the 15 yard bench penalty for chasing the ref down the sideline while yelling at him. Was Shafer chasing him because the ref walked away too fast for courtesy to a coach or had Shafer truly lost his cool? In an odd way I liked that SS was as p#$%^d as he ought to be and thought he should be more assertive on bad calls. However, I've seen refs spend an inordinate amount of time respectfully explaining a call to an angry, highly regarded coach and that ref would stay with the coach for a long time. With Shafer, the ref seemed to say his piece then walk away when Shafer wasn't done with the 'conversation'. Am I overstating this or was the ref really showing a lack of respect for SS? [/QUOTE]
