Sample test Qs are fun-Not!

[mdray]

this wording of this question is really bad imho

the use of the word "granted" is misleading...the rule reads "each team is entitled to one additional 60 second time out DURING each extra period" 5-12-1

you can't "grant" this time out "at the start of the OT"...it can only be "granted" after the ball has become live to start the OT ....5-12-4

It may not be any consolation, but the Fed test Q's in Baseball and Football are similar with unusually worded sentences. I'm assuming (lol) the same 2 guys purposely switch things up to cause discussions...

stupid wording - A team isn't "granted" a timeout unless they request it first.

Allocated is a more proper term, yes?

This Q is interesting b/c the vets can have a conversation around it.

Logic and grammar pundits note that the Q is technically true.

Newbies will likely get confused. I know that I did/would be.

I don't think the Q is constructive.
