So do you share my confusion here, Bob, or are you merely playing Devil's Advocate? I can live with "T's, you can run the endline; personals go to the arrow". But I'd like some rationale. Is it "just because"? I hate that.

Chuck:

I understand your concern about rationale and also have the same question. But I would think the play with the double technical foul would be a one in a gazillion play. One would have to have either both coaches going nuclear while the shot is in the air or two opponents screaming at the officials or at each other, and what are the chances of that happening during a game.
