In mine it is just a frustrated coach saying "Fouls are 7-1 against me".

What if he just said "Score is 23-12 against me".

Or "My point guard couldn't dribble if he had a mouth full of novacaine."

You gonna T him up?
No, because he doesn't expect me to score points for him or dribble the ball for his point guard. But when the fouls are 7-1, he's expecting me to start calling fouls on the other team to even it up.


Tony, wtf do I care what he expects?

I imagine he expects he might leave the gym with another W. He doesn't always get it, does he?

Dan, you can't honestly tell me that when a coach says this to you, he's not complaining that you're calling the game unfairly? C'mon, you know better than that. He is NOT saying, "Gosh darnit, I wish my kids would quit fouling." He's saying, "You guys aren't calling it both ways!"
I already told you my reply when he complains about the foul count.

If the foul count gets to 7-1 believe me I know it before he does, and I know there's a reason for it. His comment is not gonna change the way the game is being called.
