See, ref3808, this is why I don't trust a reporter's accounting of offciating decisions made in a game.

You mean facts which include whether the head coach of the offending team was notified his player fouled out? Yeah, that would be nice.

What exactly are "bench officials" anyway?

I find this to be interesting! Whats the T for if the table didnt notify officials that the player fouled out?

If they were notified why did they shoot 2 FTS while the player was still on the court?

Was appropriate procedures followed on DQ'ed players?

Where is Anderson Cooper when you need him?

OR

Jane Velez Mitchell

Why does so much of this weird crap seem to come up during State Tournament games? Is it just because the games get more media attention during the tournaments, or are there really more odd situations happening in games when you would expect the best crews in the individual state to be working the games?

I'll take #1. All these games have credentialed media in attendance and more fans than normal.

These same situations are not newsworthy on January 20th when 6-9 Buelah-Buelah is playing 9-4 GoGo HS.

Not according to the wife of the assistant coach of Buelah-Buelah's JV girls team. That one call cost them their life's dreams.

Here is another story concerning the game but I didn't see where it addressed how people came to the realization that the kid fouled out but hadn't left the game.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the name "MFL/Mar-Mac."

I actually googled/wiki'd it to see if there was any history behind the name. Didn't find anything on my initial search.
