National Foul Association Glossary of Terms and Abbreviations

As the NFA has evolved, we here have developed a list terms for various aspects of the game. Those are, but not limited to, the following:

Fouler: One who participates in the sport of fouling (i.e. a player)
MVF: Most Valuable Fouler
The Donkies: Mid-season and End of the season awards for the NFA
Techy: Technical Foul
Flaggy: Flagrant Foul
Performance Foul: Any foul other than a personal foul (Technical, Flagrant, or Ejection)
DTE: Double Techy Ejection
Techy Foul Out Combo (TFO Combo or TFOC): When a player gets a techy and a foul out in the same game resulting in 130 points.
Stat Correction Sunday: When Yahoo! updates stats for fouls, resulting in technicals or flagrants taken away

Cousins At It Again

Demarcus Cousins' 6th foul in Thursday night's OT loss to Dallas was a flagrant 2 causing him to get ejected and earning 270 points for Pgastan FC. That one foul turned Cousins' 25 points for 5 fouls into 270 points, or in other words that one foul was worth 245 points (which is probably some sort of record). I believe this also ties the most points by a fouler in a single night at 270 (Gerald Wallace had his 6 foul be his 2nd techy also resulting in an ejection which would equal 270 points as well)

This adds to a huge season for PFC who's team scored 405 points on December 21st with 2 double techy ejections in one night (Carmelo Anthony and Joakim Noah). However, one of Melo's techies was taken away so the adjusted score is now 365 points.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!
