i guarantee your pre-game with the scorer wont change the fact that the scorer screwed up.
you dont think they know that they have to record all the fouls, points, running score, timeouts, etc. even at freshman level games the scorer knows what needs to be done.
All i do before the game is identify the home book and tell him/her if there is any issues with the book have get our attention and it needs to be resolved ASAP.
Do you mean to tell me you look at the book in between all quarters and count up all the fouls and score and then check the visiting book as well and compare. I highly doubt your answer will be yes to that?
All you can do is ask the book -- is everything right -- if both books are sitting together -- Do you 2 agree on the book? they say yes you move on. Its not our job to dissect the book every available minute -- we dont have the luxury nor the time.
what happens if you check the score and its right with 1 minute to go -- and this happens in the last minute. nothing can prevent what happened from happening except maybe having a visitors book as well. The officials messed up the rules application they were not responsible for the actual F'ck up in the book.
