Flagrant review
 
Tennessee/Kansas women's game. They paused to review a potential flagrant against Tennessee. I'd love to see them add the option of calling a T for faking being fouled after they review the replay.

I am always for progress if it improves the game. BUT, the Foul section in the Rule 4 and the Technical Foul in Rule 10 of the NCAA Rules Book has become absolutely ridiculous. I have a bachelor's in engineering with a double major in civil (specialization: structural) and mechanical (specialization: enigineering mechanics) enigneering, and a minor in mathematics (scientific and engineering applications) and I am glad that I stopped officiating college ball after MTD, Jr.'s first year of officiating.

Mathematically, I have always loved elegant solutions to engineering problems, but when it comes to structural design, best design is a KISS design: Keep It Simple Stupid. The TF section of NCAA Rule 10 has been rewritten by people who have for gotten to use KISS. And the NFHS Rules Book is starting to look lilke the NCAA Rules Book.

And I was pulling for KU.

All that education and you still can't spell ridiculous correctly? Or even your own field of study? ;) Hope you don't mind if everyone else ridicules you for your misspelling. :D

DOH!!! :D

English is my third language. My first language is Mathematics and my second language is FORTRAN.

MTD, Sr.

P.S. I will correct the spelling.

Still using those "punch cards" Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.?

Bill:

When I first learned the language at Youngstown State University (early 1970's when Ron Jaworski was playing football at YSU; we matriculated together at YSU in 1969), that is how we inputed our programs, one card per line of code, and hoped we didn't make a typing error. But when Bonnie Jean and I moved back to Toledo from Los Angeles (mid-1980's), I took a couple of advanced mathematics classes in numerical analysis and by then I could input the code right at a computer terminal.

I thought she might have caught her with a shoulder on the way around. Definitely not the elbow. Good no call. Loooong review.

"imputed" and "imput" MUST be technical terms used in the engineering world, because to those of us who speak/type/write English, the term is....input

Not to kick a man while he's down, but the past tense of "input" is "input," isn't it?

I told you that English was my third language, LOL.
