My favorite line in this situation is, "And that means WHAT?"

The coach is making a personal attack when they start this nonsense. They are either accusing you of complete incompetence or cheating...
How is stating a fact the same as accusing you of cheating?
Because this "fact" is just saying, "If you were doing your job well, or fairly, the foul count would not be 7-1."
Maybe in your universe.

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?
You have got to be kidding?

That is the biggest apple to orange comparison in the history of this forum.
Apples & oranges?

Virtually everything a coach says to me in a reasonable manner is treated the same: in one ear, out the other. I don't care if he's complaing about the foul count, the score, the traffic, his bunions or his mother-in-law.

Listening to coaches b1tching comes with the territory.
