I'm glad this one is being debated. It was bothering me from the first time I answered it.

Where is the debate? By definition, 4-19-14: An unsporting foul is a....... technical foul......


What am I missing?

Is there any "official" acknowledgement from the Fed that the "official" answer key is wrong? If they are anything like our state assn., hell freeze over before they admit an error.

A few years back, our state test had 4 (that I caught) wrong, out of 175.

My state used to throw questions out every year. And it was for things like this that we are reading. The NF just tries to play with words and often trips themselves up. Kind of glad we no longer have to take that silly test. I hope it remains that way for some time.

Peace

Here is another view:

From 4.19.1: ...A personal foul is a player foul which involves illegal contact

From 4.19.14: ... An unsporting foul is a noncontact technical foul

Can a foul be both a contact foul and a noncontact foul?
