Coach, I agree with you. I think the right thing to do is walk by and say 'he cursed'.
My main thing is, you are already or near the table to report the infraction, why not stop for 2 more seconds and tell the coach why (if he asks). I think answering a coaches question has more postives, than not answering a coaches question.
If a coach asks why a foul iscalled, if you have an opportunity to explain, what does it hurt?
Chuck, from what I have read, is that your main premise is that the coach is/may attack you. And maybe I am wrong, but I always give the benefit of the doubt. If I answer a question and he then attacks my explanation, you can guess how many more times I am going to go out of my way for that coach again. But he listens, says ok, what was the harm?
