The play still doesn't make much sense to me -- how did V get the rebound if all its players had "dropped back" -- sure, it's possible for the shooter to get it, but what the heck were the home team rebounders doing?

In any event, either ignore the horn and continue play, or blow the whistle if everyone stops and give the ball back to the team in control.

Can a basket be counted after the horn if the Ref knows there should be time on the clock? Say on a FT time starts when ball hits rim but not player. A couple of seconds go by ball bouncing around. Player gets rebound, buzzer, he then scores. Count basket? Of course that would be awful in a close game and even worse if the defensive stopped.

Many years ago, after an inadvertent horn sounded, I said to a coach, "I can't help it if the score crew inadvertently gets horny." After I said it, I remembered that one of the crew was his wife!!!

Not really. You don't know his wife.

Actually, I'm only writing for this Letterman. It's an easy job, because he only has one letter.

Did you write "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You", one of my favorite Lettermen songs?
