Triumph,

That's interesting, I never looked at it that way. That said, I never see NFL players getting into it with refs or umpires hardly at all, even when disputing plays, and can't remember a ref ever throwing the flag on something that was said to them (what would that even be called, unsportsmanlike conduct?).

Marty Schottenheimer got one of these in the Chargers' playoff game against the Jets a few years back. He came on to the field to argue a call.

A few reasons why it doesn't happen more often:

A - the coach can't always talk to the ref - he usually bothers the line judge.

B - he's got to worry about what's going on more than any coach/manager in other sports

but beyond these, I'm not sure why it doesn't happen more often. Perhaps the challenge system helps too.
