In isolation, the foul count is meaningless. It is useful information only when considered in the context of many other useful bits of information, like M&M explained.
But it's more useful information to me during the game than afterward. During the game knowing the foul count is going to help me better manage the coach who feels he's getting the short end of the foul count stick.
