$%#@ing FEEBLE
 
Damn ^$%@ing FEEBLE.


Worst #@^$ing rule set ever.

I dunno why anyone in their right &%$^ing minds would ever want to switch from the perfectly good federation rules to this abomination.


Whew...that felt good.

Now I just gotta get ready for a tournament using FEEBLE rules this weekend :(

Is that where the NHL got the trapezoid idea?

J,

The FIBA games I've done thus far take less time to play, and I know you're not opposed to that! :p The changes are relatively minute, too. I know it might be a bit of a pain at the beginning; if I can help in anyway, lemme know.

Learning FIBA is not bad: it opens doors in fact. NHL Referee #7 Bill McCreary has learned IIHF rules: not only doing NHL finals every year he does Olympic assignments. NBA official Sean Corbin does a great job in the pros and also has FIBA certification.

The shape of the goalie's puck handling restricted area is actually a very good design. Imagine goalies being limited to 90° turns to go behind the net: not good for the game.

I know you're just kiddin' around though. :cool:

Maybe;) FIBA's shape keeps the big guys farther from the basket. This results in a slightly different low post play; also, it asks for wider movements of the lead, mainly in two man officiating, when the low post is on the opposite side of the lane.

The width of the lane on the baseline is 6 meters (19'8''), compared to the 12' of NFHS-NCAA lane. The free throw line has almost the same measure (3.6 meters, i.e., 11'10''), if I made right the calculations.;)

The court length is 28 meters (91'10'') and the width is 15 meters (49'2.5'')

Ciao

Oh yeah, I forgot you were dropped on your head as a baby leading to some non-specific damage that makes you enjoy these crap movies.

I actually only enjoyed about 20 minutes of it. The Chinese drive-thru, the discovery of the tatoos and the father and son who both wanted a ride at the carnival. In fact, I don't even remember anything else about the movie.

Is there a website that outlines the specific differences between FIBA and other sanctioning bodies (i.e. NF or College).

You get 1 point for only "enjoying" 3 parts of the movie.

You lose 12 points for actually sitting thru the whole thing.
