The new issue (April 2000) of Referee Magazine arrived today and one statement cracked me up. On page 67, in an article about tossing the ball on a center jump it states, "Two of the more commonly accepted methods for tossing the ball are the one-handed toss and the two-handed toss."
I'd be curious to know what some of the LESS commonly accepted methods are. Does anyone out there toss the ball with their feet? Please let me know if it makes for a straighter toss and I'll try it.
I think there's a mechanics manual on some alien planet that recommends a three-handed toss, but I'm not sure.
BTW - for all you coaches out there, "gaffe" means "a blunder".
