First of all if you really want to be technical, you could have a double foul in these situations. We just do not want to go there and rightfully so. We call double fouls in other aspects of the game so I do not know how you can make that statement. Also I was not talking about the players being right or wrong. I am talking about the judgment of the officials.

The coaches will still look @ the tape but will see that the tape backs up the call. I know that the men's game doesn't allow this to happen they have to go with a double foul. In the women's game we have the opportunity to correct it and go with the correct call and only penalize just one player and not two.
Here you go with the "get it right" line. I surely hope you have more to offer than that statement. You are "getting it right" when you are following what the rules say. If you pick one, someone is going to feel slighted. If you go with a double foul, you have a wash. It might not be the best thing, but at least there is not a question of "he did not give me a call night and here is another example." You make it sound like in the Women's game they will not look at tape and disagree with the foul that was decided upon.

It is not always about whose primary. It could be who had the play from the beginning. Or who had the better angle. There are trouble areas in coverage areas and dual coverage areas.
