I don't think you can (other than saying it affects the way someone calls the game, but I've already said it doesn't for me so you can't say that again so nyah-nyah). It's an opinion thing, and you know what they say about opinions!

For the record, I never said that it was a bad thing. I said that it's useless information. If it's not going to affect the way that you call the game, then
why do you need to know it anyway? I'm still waiting for that question to be answered by someone.
And what exactly is wrong with being surprised when you find out that a player has five fouls btw?

What difference does it really make, one way or t'other, when you're informed by the bench?
