Coach: "The Fouls are 7-2!"

In this case, our goal should be to resolve the situation, or end the conversation. Stop sign, that's enough, whatever it takes.

"The foul count is 7-2" is not enough for a T. So how can you justify T'ing a coach after baiting him?

Read the whole post. I never said that saying the foul cout is whatever is justification for a T. I said that if a coach starts the coversation, he put himself on the path that leads to a T. I don't believe we are baiting the coach by continuing a conversation that is really about him saying that we are cheating for the other team, especially if he starts the conversation.

I agree that we should stop the conversation if at all possible, but some coaches won't let it go. Make them call you a cheater (that is what they are implying anyway), give them the T and be done with it. Totally justified.
