It is covered in the rules. It's illegal and it's a technical foul. Mark is simply asking if anyone would call it.

This is not specifically covered in the rules. If you are talking about 10-3-7b, sorry but that is not my interpretation of that rule, nor is this the situation decribed. A1 did not delay anything and the ball came right back to him. Not even the casebook covers this specifically, so what are you talking about? No delay, not a technical and common sense wins out here. But then again you think giving a T for a kid cursing to himself is warranted. What else should be expected from you Tony?

You can expect me to know the rules!
NF 2-7-4
The officials shall conduct the game in accordance with the rules.
This includes prohibiting practice during a dead ball, except between halves.
I've never called this and probably never would unless the player was warned and did it again.
And, no, I don't give technical fouls to players who curse at themselves under their breath. I defy you to find a post where I have ever made such a statement. In NC, we are required to eject players who direct profanity an opponent, a fan or an official. Sorry if you don't like the rule, but I am required to follow.
Don't argue with me about the rules, Rutledge. You can't win.
