Besides the answer to number 64 being incorrect, number 10 is also wrong, as John Trice of Clemson University pointed out to me in an email. Question 10 reads, "An unsportsmanlike foul may be a personal foul." The NF answer sheet says "true" and references 4-18-11 in the rule book. The correct reference is 4-19-13 which states "An unsportsmanlike foul is a noncontact technical foul which consists of ..." Noncontact technical fouls are not personal fouls, as stated in 4-19-1 which gives the definition of a personal foul and states that personal fouls are contact fouls. Discussion?

Mark,
I think you are correct. The answer sheet is wrong. My rule reference for question 10 it 4-19-1, which does not seem to apply here. Our association at the recent rules meeting and rules test marked it "incorrect" based on rule 10-3-8 which states It is a technical foul to "Commit an unsportsmanlike foul". Rule 4-19-13 deals with a non contact "unsportsmanlike foul". The question is can you have an unsportsmanlike perosnal foul while the ball is alive? Rule 4-19-1 would indicate that a personal foul (unsportsmanlike or not) could be ruled a personal foul, not a technical, if during a live ball. I have never seen any official deal with an unsportsmanlike foul any other way than a technical whether theball was alive or not. Another Fed. trick question. I think the answer sheet is wrong with a true answer. I will ask our state rules interperter for a ruling. Later. Jerry
