Wow, that statement made my eyebrows jump up. I don't think that's what the rulemakers had in mind when they came up with a double foul.

IMO, a double foul is a great way to clean up this post play early in the game, if they are both banging away at each other like they're in the NBA. If one player is definately the culprit, get 'em for it. If they're both banging away, maybe talk to them, but get them with the double if you have to. Coaches (okay, smart coaches) will know exactly what you're doing, and won't have a problem with the double foul.
Just don't wait until the fourth quarter to call it, unless you plain have to.
