I have worked with a few religious and well educated people that used profanity in the locker room and quietly to me away from players, coaches, and fans. Usually this was used to vent frustration from a coach or a play they may have missed. While I don't use profanity, I am not offended by it unless it is directed at anyone. I smile when a player yells replacement words instead of a curse word. However, people still know what he meant. |

My rule changes:
1) Timeouts can only be called by players on the court. 2) Adopt the NCAA timing rule so the clock stops for a made basket with under a minute left in the game. 3) Switch from 8 minute quarters to 16 minute halves. |

We have a 30 point mercy rule in GHSA...Cut from 8 minutes to 6 minutes in the 4th quarter if the lead is 30 or more. Suppose the lead is 28 after 3 qtrs, and the first play in the 4th quarter makes it a 30 point game....Why not enforce the mercy rule at that point (which we don't do)? There are just so many variables that could be changed to make the game more "fair" or "fan friendly". You can't get away from subjectivity no matter what you do........ I have no answers, just opinions, as the rest of us do. |

another rule change suggestion
I guess this would be for both FED and NCAA. How about eliminating the ability to inbound into the back court on a throw in after the ball has been advanced to the front court?
And/or - eliminating both the 10 second back court count and the five second closely guarded count in games that have a shot clock. Having all those counts seems redundant.

Agree:
--Stop clock after made basket near end of game, two min. sounds about right --T/O only by players on court Disagree: --Halves stead quarters. Keep quarters. Some states do Q to enable jv/v splitting Wish list: --Get rid of the three point arc. I heard one writer saying there was talk about abolishing the DH, if that's true they can get rid of this travesty too. --Get rid of the arrow. Tie 'em up, you deserve an equal shot at possession at the precise spot in the game; jump it up. --three for two on tenth foul |

I never get people that want to eliminate the three point line.

proposed FIBA rule change
Coach A forgot to use the metric alphabet when entering his players names into the scorebook so none of his players are actually entered correctly. Therefore, team B starts the game by shooting 1.67 shots for each incorrect entry, then they get the ball 3 meters from the division line. I would suggest the rule expand to include team A having to provide 2.53 muffins for each of the officials in this case. What do you guys think?
BTW - has anyone seen my meds?
