Couple years ago I got a yellow for dissent as well. My situation was pretty stupid too. When the ball went out of bounds I was signaling the call on ours to get my kids to make quick throws. The ref comes over and says let me ref the game, you coach. My comment back was simply, I'm trying to get my kids to play quick. He says not another word. I say yes sir. He walks over and gives me a yellow card. My jaw about dropped as did my players. My assistant walks over and asks what did you get a yellow card for? I said I wasn't sure. Obviously we have some guys in our state who either bring their bad day to the pitch or they are on power plays, or want to be the show. That was in Loris, so I assume the ref was from the beach. When we went to NMB this year for their tourney, I thought the officiating was pretty consistent and good. In the Pee Dee region we have a fair number of good refs who call it pretty close. We have a few who could use a refresher course in the rules, but again, I try to focus on what we can do to win rather on hoping the calls go our way. I think we have a society that always wants to place the blame on someone else. The ref is an easy scapegoat. I see it in almost every sport. My students who play football will come in after losing a game and say the ref didn't make any calls our way. They would lose 44-14. Basketball players too after losing by 20.
