Me too. Figuring out how to operate today's complex and computerized scoreboard consoles is SUCH a pain. I can't tell you how much I dislike doing that.

Oh wait, you didn't mean it like that? In that case, the proper answer, of course, is that you DIDN'T put any points on the board. You simply performed the function for which you were hired: you assessed the proper penalty for A1's inappropriate action. If there is somebody to "pin" those two points on, it's A1.

PS. Would it make you feel any better if a B player actually had to make two free throws to get the points? If so, why?
