And P.S., BTW, FWIW, etc. . . I don't think the FED should adopt the NCAA rule. I don't like the fact that we have to fundamentally alter the notion of team control and then make goofy exceptions -- for backcourt violations and 3-second violations.

I would rather leave the definition of team control alone and then make an exception for "offensive" fouls during the throw-in. If you really want to eliminate 1-and-1's for fouls during a throw-in, just say that. "No FTs awarded to a player as a result of a common foul during an opponent's throw-in." That's much simpler than writing two exceptions for other violations.

Either way, we have to introduce a goofy exception. So let's leave our fundamental definitions alone. JMO.
