We have four kids that play five different sports, this coach is by far the fairest and respectable coach that one of my sons have ever had. This punishment is substantially harsh, especially for a coach that is as envolved and dedicated to these boys. Coach admitted all wrong doing and apologized to these boys, but I am disappointed in the brutal disciplinary action the league has taken in this manner. In a time when this sport is at a all time low in participation numbers nationwide, we don’t have time for grown men to have pissing contests of who can get the last word.

If you're going to dole out punishment it should be done fairly at least....

Coach Rob was a great coach to my son for 2 years. Even went above and beyond to stay with him when I was late picking up from practice.

I was there that day and Think one week suspension was enough. Coach Rob is very enthusiastic and we all saw the favoritism show the other team. He only did what we all wanted to do. Maybe instead of suspending Coach Rob you should suspend some of the refs. Hard to teach children sportsmanship when the refs don't show it. It's the same as bullying. Stop the refs from bullying certain teams.

I was there. I saw/heard MOST of the exchange. There was nothing threatening or hateful from Coach Rob that you do not see regualarly on the field of play. Furthermore, humans are creatures of habit. I think he and the other coaches were right in their assesment of the officiating. Every game before and the game yesterday had ONLY A SLIGHT AMOUNT OF PENALTIES AGAINST West. I've never seen a team have so many in just one game and so few in others. REINSTATE AND CLEAR HIS REPUTATION. He is a great coach.

The one-week suspension was okay.Not the rest of the season. If this man takes time out to spend with someone else child I commend him.Let that young man get back to his job

Coach Rob is a great coach and shows genuine love and care for these boys. I have personally seen coaches from this league do way worse and get way less punishment. There have been incidents where the coaches have called the children deragatory names. Coach Rob's comment was not to a child, and he was rightfully concerned about his boys. This ruling is unjust.

The one week suspension fit the "crime" . Taking him away from his team right before the playoffs is excessive.

As a grandparent of one of the players I feel the season is too harsh a penalty and more than the rules allow.
