I simply tell them I understand and I didn't show up today with the intention of of letting them get hurt either...That usually quiets them down...

I like that "other coach said that too" line...
Had the "site supervisor" (usually the volunteer AD from a parochial school) come up to us during a 7th and 8th grade game and say something like that. He came up to us and said we needed to call a tighter game because the kids were getting hurt. When I asked him if he was referring to the one that got hurt in the first half, he said yes. I asked him if he saw the play, and he said no, but knew there was no foul called. I said well, kinda hard to call a foul when the girl was all by herself and started to drive into the lane and took a bad step and went down hard. He said, call something next time and walked away. By this point, partner was already on the phone calling the assignor. After the game, the supervisor came up and apologized to us, saying he got a call from the league President who got a call from the assignor. He didn't realize word could travel so fast. I remarked "the wonders of cell phone technology!" He wouldn't talk to me the rest of the day.
