why isn't it an inderect when Player A in the first quarter gets a T? It is inconsistant
Well, it's not inconsisant, b/c the kid is bench personnel not a player; but I agree with Chad that it's a bad rule. I would prefer to see the rule changed to read that the DQ'd player is not bench personnel until he's legally subbed for or until he has returned to the bench area. I agree that it makes no sense that a kid can curse after getting his 3rd foul, with no indirect on the coach; but if he curses after getting his 5th foul, we have to hit the coach too. Bad rule, IMO.
