It was always my contention that if the league really wanted to limit the amount of outbursts from the players, they should put a more valued item then mere $$$ and a FT. My suggestion was for it to count as a personal foul as well, thereby limiting the players ability to stay on the court. This solution especially does the same thing. Glad to see it.

Agreed...henceforth this new rule will be referred to affectionately as "The Rasheed Wallace" rule or the "Whiny ***** Wallace" rule, or the "Cry Baby Wallace" rule...
