Two left hands
That's what the ref had. Or was it two left brains?
Even now, seven years later, I can barely bring myself to think about it. My older boy's team lost in the state tournament one year in a game where a play exactly like the one being discussed had a real effect. Last year I watched the video for the first time. Kid (who shouldn't have been in the game) dribbled with his left, ball came up, hit his left forearm, bounced and hit his right forearm, fell to the floor, and he tried to keep dribbling it. The official signaled double dribble . . .
I argued with him later, that there was no basis in the rules . . . it just looked funny.
I am very interested in any casebook rulings from yesteryear, whatever anyone has. I just want to know before I die . . .
