I wonder if you saw exactly what I saw if you would still say give 2 FT's.

I don't understand how you can say that he was attempting a throw for a goal, and then that he wasn't attempting a throw for a goal. If you thought he was attempting a goal when he first started his motion, -- and those were your words not mine -- then why is it so hard to believe that the whistle blew the play dead, and he just didn't finish? That would still be an attempt, and would merit two shots. I don't understand what you're saying here.
Well, I"m off to a game, also. IT won't be as much fun as yours, though, I expect. It's going to be scrappy, sloppy and hostile. Oh, well. I guess tonight is dues night.
