      It was a spray directed at Stack.. You could see Rocket yell out 'Stacky' at the beginning.

      Having just watched the spray (and the last couple of minutes of play) one would think Rocket was pretty upset by the errant handball Stacky fired out in the dying stages of the 1st qtr which lead to the goal after the qtr time siren. One would think that our players would be under instructions to get the ball towards the boundary in these situations and I would think that a wild handball into the corridor would be frowned upon.... which it seems it was.

        I am pretty sure you can let someone know without screaming at them.

        I can definitely understand rising your voice/screaming at times but it seems so consistent with Rocket. The ironic thing is, if you yell enough it eventually just becomes white noise anyway.

          Maybe there is more too it than just letting them know? Some people only response when blasted. I don't think it that consistent, he picks his targets well usually. Barassi was far more brutal and he is considered a coaching legend.

            He seems to only yell at certain players which to me indicates that he thinks about it before blasting away.
