Working with a guy the other day that reported a story to me about a crew that Td up a kid for pregame dunking. Problem was they were in the locker room and someone part of either the coaching or game admin staff came in with video of said dunking. They went out and issued the T based on the video.

I've got an opposite story about a crew that exited to the locker room after a game, well outside the visual confines of the court, and were convinced by a coach and athletic director to come back out to the the gym to fix a scoring error that, in the end, overturned the result of the game. One of the officials was a guy that I often worked with and I considered him to be a very good official, who's day job was that of a highly respected attorney, so he was not a stupid person. I felt bad for him, the newspaper story named him and the story made all the large statewide newspapers, not just the local newspaper.

That's why it's good practice in the final minute of a close game during timeouts to go over and try to head off a potential issue. Especially if you've had some odd sequences that could of led to scoring confusion.

Unless it's forty-point blowout, great advice.

That's why he said "close game" in his post. It's something I've been doing for years, even when I'm not the 'R'.
