I agree Pete...but it was still stupid, especially with the low tolerance
the refs seem to have with our guys anyway.  I know this is out of character
for him but still unnecessary.

Our guys need to play more and bitch less.  That goes for Toine, Paul and
everyone else.  You never win.  The coach can put the badmouth on the refs
if he feels it's necessary.
