Mark, how can I rescind something that I never called in the first place?
For the umpty-ump time, I am
NOT calling a technical foul on any
PERSON who is not affiliated with a team. To ascertain whether that person is affiliated with the team, I am going to rely on what the team's head coach and the official scorer tell me. If they tell me that the person is
NOT affiliated with the team, I have
NO reason
NOT to believe them. I also then have
NO rules justification to issue technical fouls to anyone unless I try to use R2-8-1 and "T" 'em up as being a fan interfering with the game. I will simply get anyone that is not affiliated with the team immediately removed from the court, same as what is normally done with any fan being out there.
If the head coach/official scorer
DO tell me that the person is affiliated with the team, then they will get a "T" if they have dunked the ball, and the head coach will also get an indirect "T". I have rules justification to do that. Those "T"s will not be rescinded.
RIF.
As I said, if anyone wants to
assume that a person is affiliated with a team without first checking to find out whether they actually are or not, be my guest. I'm not the one that's going to have to answer any complaint that is put in.
