Situation posed
This did not happen in my game however the question was posed and I didn't know what the correct response was.
Team B is in the double bonus. A1 fouls B1. While B1 is on the foul line with the ball the table informs the table side official that A1 has committed his 5th foul. Officials do nothing. Officials don't inform the player or coach before the 2nd free throw. B1 makes/misses free throw, does not really matter. A few trips up and down the floor, points are scored and time runs off the clock. A1 committed another foul, his 6th. Officials are informed that A1 has committed 6 fouls and has already fouled out when he committed his 5th. (no special rules allowing players 6 fouls, players are only aloud the standard 5.) What do you do besides informing coach and player that he fouled out? The official book keeper did his job by informing the officials after the 5th foul. |
Get player out of game and make a mental note he only gets four for next outing. Not correctable.

You wait for a sub and keep playing. After the game, you report the official that didn't do anything even though he or she was notified and hope you don't have to work with them anymore.

That was what I thought however the same partner who overturned my call on my "shame one me/partner" post told me that I got that one wrong as well. Again this situation was not on my game but his response to me was that "you better hit the rule book again." Some people just think that they know it all, and in reality don't. I guess he better get in the rule book again.

I understand. I'd feel out the association a bit longer before you start blocking partners. Now you know this guy is just a GIGDGO partner.
Did he bother to tell you the right procedure? |

Of course the above is what you'd like to do. I'd respectfully tell him that the situation got you thinking and you looked it up trying to learn from it and you thought you'd share it with him how you understand it. If he blows you off, drop it. He knows he's wrong, but not big enough to admit it. I made a bet with a state final guy in my early years over a situation which we differed on and I was correct. Next time I saw him he paid up, which I didn't care about, but he insisted. Said alot about him. |
