Well, they're not actually saying that, but I can read their minds.

"Call it on both ends!"

"Coach it's 8 to 8 for fouls"

"I don't care about even, I want it called on both ends!"

I don't hear it, and when I do, all the comments sound alike.
Once I hear it, I address it.

Simply saying, "Coach, we're not talking about the foul count" normally works.

Had this happen in a JV girls game the other day.

Inbound from the backcourt endline, I'm new lead. Inbounds pass is tipped and goes out of bounds, and neither my partner or I know who touched it.

Partner eventually rules it as Team B's ball, and I'm not sure why. I go over to him to find out what's going on... he says "White #15 told me she touched it last, so that's what we're going with." Ok, then, fair enough.

A couple plays later, I've got a foul call. I report it, and coach politely asks "how'd the other team get the ball on the inbounds play?"
"Well, coach, your player told us she hit it out of bounds"
(sputtering). "I don't care about that! This isn't about being honest!"

All righty then.

The best line I heard from a Coach was at the end of the first half. His team committed 15 fouls (according to him) and his team's opponent had committed two fouls. He asked me: "What I am supposed to tell my players?" My response was: "Stop fouling."

Coach: "Ref, the fouls are 7-1"

Ref: "Yes, coach. And your team has 1".

Coach: "Oh" and sits down quietly.

Yes, this really happened.

Fouls:
Home 7

Home coach: "The foul count's seven to one!" Tweet, whack. TF on home coach.
My amigo: "And what is it now?"
I'm not sure I would ever say this in a game, but it made me laugh.
