What I mean is that the defender moves into the shooter as he takes his shot.

Question,

Don't have my books with me. I didn't hear the horn sound in the video (it may have, but I didn't hear it). Do I remember correctly that if the clock reads 0:00 but the horn has not yet sounded, there is still time on the clock, albeit less than 1/10 of a second, and in this case if the horn didn't sound, they should line up and shoot with people in the lane spaces?

Assuming the buzzer was set to automatically sound, yes.

[Brad]

Yes - that is the rule.

If you want to be anal about it, the correct term is the timer's signal. The signal could be a horn, buzzer or Curley Joe going "nyuk, nyuk, nyuk".

Just because we didn't hear the buzzer, doesn't mean it didn't sound.

Somebody better have heard a buzzer if the clock is working OK. If the buzzer hasn't sounded and the clock is fine, the period isn't over until you hear the buzzer...even if the clock reads 0:00.

Just check with the timer to see if the signal went. If not, line the players up as normal, and start the clock as normal.

True Stooge-o-philes don't recognize any of the replacements for the original Curly as having any validity.

I prefer the gong.

There was a "revival" of The Gong Show on Game Show Network some years ago. The bandleader on that revival was Barry Fasman, known as "The Foz". Barry and I grew up together back in Chicago. He was always into music, even as a kid. BTW - he has an older sister named "Bunny". No, I'm not joking.

I know this is way off topic, but we're in the off-season.

What other kind of gong is there?

I wasn't talking about if we as I was officiating the game, but the video was edited and they left off the buzzer.
