Next, Cory: The reason the coaches yelling at a football game is seen as acceptable is because they are yelling a long distance. In FIRST, the coach is standing right next to you. There is no need to yell. If you think it is still 'no big deal' to have people down there yelling, have a friend or someone yell at you when you are taking a test(or doing something else that requires though) and see if it is 'no big deal'.
I've been a driver, operator, human player, and coach. Like Madison, I would contend that yelling is nearly a necessity. If my coach wasn't yelling when I was driving, odds are I wasn't going to hear what they were saying. There's a difference between yelling at someone and yelling to someone, like I said in my last post.
