Coach: I don't care.....(I immediately walked away and couldn't hear the rest of his comment and I made sure not to speak to him again after that)
Summer coaches are too funny!

I had one over the weekend say the top of the backboard is out. Much like yourself, when the comment is totally incorrect my tolerance level drops a bit.
"There are 6 sides to a backboard, only 1 is out, coach."
I saw the addition being done in his head trying to count the sides... 3-4 trips later.

By the way, these arent the plays or coaches I feel deserve an explanation on.
Its legit concerns, by legit coaches on questionable plays that I'm speaking of.
