[QUOTE]
I am clearly advocating a rule change when I suggest that the rule should be when in doubt count the three.
[QUOTE]

I can't agree with this suggestion. When we signal a 3, we are telling everyone we saw the foot behind the line. Yes, we might make a mistake from time to time. If we start signaling a 3, because it's close and we are not sure, well... I guess you need to be in our shoes. I believe there will be a lot more mistakes.

Since changing the rule is difficult I suggest that officials should be provided with large monitors that are HIGH DEFINITION where possible.
[QUOTE]

While I would like to have all the tools necessary to get every play correct, I think there is a limit. We have to deal with all kinds of unfair situations in life, basketball is no different. Game mgmt. has to balance what they feel is necessary to be on the tables next to the court. Do they want a large monitor on the table? Do the players want to run into a large monitor while chasing a ball?
