True, but make sure you read the side effects in fine print; and call your doctor if you experience priapism.

Well, the definition I found included the phrase "often painful". :(

Or, conversely for the more progressive folks among us, so as not to upset them:

"So she can come right over."

Persoanlly, I\'d like to see a modified form of the NBA "2 fouls under 2 minutes = penalty" rule at the end of each half in NFHS. Would help when a team has only committed 0-4 team fouls up to that point and decides they need ot foul away to get the ball back.

Totally agree, Fed. is not into better game management.

I understand your point and it has merit, but think of it this way. If a team is trailing late in a close game and they "need" to foul, as long as they\'re making a play on the ball, they can get more aggressive and you just call the foul even if it happens repeatedly. I don\'t think we should unduly penalize them for being more aggressive if they played well enough up to that point that they didn\'t accrue many fouls by imposing shots for fewer than seven fouls in a half. If they\'re just fouling to stop the clock, call the intentional. I feel this is where a lot of problems stem from - officials being reluctant to call intentionals when they are warranted.

Also, I rarely see teams pull this at the end of the first half, only at the end of the game.

I agree with Mark. Also, teams that haven\'t fouled and are in the lead often use their fouls strategically. An NBA-style rule would take that away; a benefit for not fouling early gets taken away.
