Is That You Mr. Baumgartner ???

The easiest and most commonly recognized subject placement is the very first word of a sentence; whenever a sentence starts with a pronoun, you can bet it will be "I," "he," "she," "they," "who," or...

Mark Padget Remembered ...

I would often try to convince Mark Padgett to switch his jokes from "Hot Mom" to "Hot single Mom", not wanting to encourage officials to become home wreckers.

I miss Mark Padgett. Not only because...

Double The Fun ...

Forty years for me. Exactly the same thing.



Altor's casebook interpretation comment wasn't about "announce(ing) ourselves", rather it was about announcing (by whistle) the actual technical...

Gospel Truth ...

Music Blaring Throughout The Gym ...

Are the players down the other end of the court going to be warned with this statement in a conversational tone over the music blaring throughout the gym?

Pregame Whistle ...

I was referring to sounding a whistle. A whistle seven minutes before the game begins would most certainly elicit attention.



"Tuck your shirts in"? Layup line? Never. I've got bigger fish to...

Whistle While You Work ...

Interesting point. I always thought that "but does not sound the whistle" was more of a mechanics situation rather than a rules situation and often wondered about its purpose in the casebook.

Do They Still Sound Pregame Whistles In Texas ???

If you're not 100% sure it's a dunk, or a dunk attempt, and if you're not 100% sure that it was under your jurisdiction, then it's probably not T-worthy.

If it's close (questionable drop in, or dunk) I may warn, but if it's unequivocally positively 100% a dunk, or dunk attempt, I will charge the technical foul, and I'm not waiting to get permission...
