Some will say the awareness that a player will be disqualified on his next foul is valuable because they are immediately ready to proceed with the disqualification and the chance of this player improperly being allowed to stay in the game is greatly diminished.
To this I say
Others say when a player, particularly a "star" player has early foul trouble, we should be careful not to give him a "cheap one" or to make sure each foul is a "good one" or some other such nonsense.
I say this is not worthy of response.
