10-6-12 Top Ten

[Freddy]

Top Ten Reasons . . . why some officials won't conform to calling it according to new rule 10-6-12 this season:

1. "Those are only game interrupters."
2. "I don't like the coaches yelling, 'C'mon, let 'em play out there!'"
3. "What, are they taking 4-27-1,2,3 out of the book next?"
4. "I ain't callin' those ticky-tack fouls."
5. "Out on the perimeter, this kind of contact poses no ad-/disadvantage."
6. "Some teams won't have enough players to finish with five!"
7. "We'll let the players set the tone and try to fit into their style of play."
8. "If the dribbler can play through it, we ain't gonna call it."
9. "This game is gonna take all night if we call it as written."
10. "Great for 'North-South'; doesn't seem to apply for 'East-West'."
Bonus Reason: "They put out new rule books this year?"
