This is the reason the multiple foul is in the books....if you have players doing that on purpose, it is time to pull out the multiple foul. I've never seen it happen, however and do not expect to.

Agree that the first few posts were less than erudite.

BTW, believe you meant FMF rather than MF. MFs are in the rules, too, but they are even less likely to ever be seen as officials will just pick the fouler in this case (hopefully the scrub rather than the stud).

The only time I could ever see a MF being assessed is if two officials both make the call and go to the table and both report a different dude while not realizing the other is also reporting at the same time. Then you could conceivably have to assess both because the cat was out of the bag, sort of like how you assess a DF on a blarge. But the odds of that happening and one official not yielding are astronomically low.

I actually meant MF. The MF is two players fouling the same opponent at "approximately" the same time. How far apart is close enough to be "approximately"?

I know there is a similar case play which goes to FMF but at what point does it cease to be a MF and become a FMF. That isn't specified.
