Billy, you are so old school, suggesting an analog coin flip. Go digital.

A coin flip is digital. Two possibilities, 0 (let's say that's heads) and 1 (let's say that's tails).



Actually, I would really prefer to start the game by giving the ball to the visitors at the division line opposite the table (assuming no pregame technical fouls) and starting the alternating possession arrow procedure, to be continued, even through overtime, until the game is decided.

Flipping a coin is binary. There are 10 kinds of people in the world: 1) Those who understand binary and 2) those who do not understand binary.
