C'mon Snaqwells? You're a veteran. You've never heard a player, coach, or fan, ask why the "jumpball" was called when the players only held onto it for a second? Many seem to think that two, or even, three seconds, is required. I guess that you haven't worked as many recreation, travel, and middle school games as I have over the past thirty-one years. You are right about one thing, I very seldom hear this misconception in a high school game.
