1)False double fouls are crap? False double fouls are common as hell in any game. One example is a player being fouled, and then responding by shoving his opponent. That's a personal foul followed by a technical foul---> equalling a false double foul. Any foul on a foul shot that's committed before the clock starts is a false double foul too. That's crap to make those calls? Do you really know what false double fouls are?

2) Btw, how do really you know how I go on the court every night to officiate? Have you see me? How do you know that I don't use common sense? The same way that you know a fellow official completely screwed up an intentional foul, even though you never saw the play or talked to that official? Do I have to say more???

As an official, I think that you'd make a great fan.
