Uncalled Cheap Shots

[gordon30307]

Classic example of horse**** game management. Assuming these are in chronological order.

1. Common foul
2. common foul
3. intentional
4. intentional
5. flagrant
6 flagrant never would have happened because 34 would be gone.

You take care of business early and you get rid of the trouble makers by getting them in foul trouble. In a rough physical cheap shot game you IMHO call everthing to keep it under control.

That crew has no business reffing a Frosh B game much less a Varsity contest.

What? How can it be a common foul when the player was in the act of shooting?

C'mon gordon30307. There's a reason why most officials consider Rule 4 the most important rule in the book.

Okay, Chief, what would you call that foul, then?

"Personal foul?" They're all "personal fouls."

Personal foul? Sure. Why not? But it certainly isn't a common foul:

A common foul is a personal foul which is neither flagrant nor
intentional nor committed against a player trying or tapping for a field goal nor a
part of a double, simultaneous or multiple foul.

OK Snaqwells: If you don't like calling it a personal foul, and you know that it isn't a common foul, then what are you going to call it?
