What is the basketball 10 second rule?
There are 2 you have ten seconds to get the ball across 1/2 court (8 in the NBA) & the offense must advance the ball towards the hoop and attempt to score a basket. this means the can not just hold onto the ball and not do anything. if the do the ref will count to 10 and give the ball to the other team. this rule is a college and high school rule only and was taken out of the NBA when they changed the 1/2 court rule to 8 seconds and started running the shot clock as soon as the ball is inbounded
Has there been 8 balls to an over in cricket ever?
Assuming that test matches went for the same time (not necessarily starting at 10:30 or 11:00 and going to 5:30 or 6:00, but lasting for seven hours), in an uninterrupted days play, we can calculate how many eight ball overs were bowled in a day. This question will give varying answers. Teams either move faster or slower through their overs depending on whether they bowl spin bowlers or pace bowlers, and how many wides or no balls are bowled. For the calculation, lets assume they bowled the equivalent of 90 six ball overs, thirty per session. 90 six ball overs means a total of 540 balls bowled throughout the day. If they bowled in eight ball overs, then the number of overs would be 540/8, which is 67.4 overs, halfway through the 68th over.

What does the phrase 'behind the eight ball mean?
From the eponymous game, the phrase 'to be behind the 8-ball' means being in a difficult situation.This would seem to obviously stem from the fact that when playing 8-ball, the 8-ball must be pocketed after clearing the player's other seven balls (or, in some variations, that the 8-ball cannot be hit first). To be "behind" this ball would mean that the player has no clear shot at the balls he has left to sink.Other sources suggest the term comes from Kelly Pool and refers to balls behind the 8 ball (i.e. higher in number), or that the black ball is harder to aim.---In the game of '8-ball', as well as many others, the object of the game is, simply, to pocket the 8-ball. Many rules prevent a player from simply shooting 'for' or 'at' the 8-ball directly, such as, for example, a rule stating the balls must be pocketed in numerical rotation, or, perhaps, seven 'stripes' or 'solids' must be pocketed first.Nevertheless, a player behind the ball can still win. If his shot, as well as fulfilling any rule-based requirement, also, while at least one ball is still rolling, pockets the 8-ball.---The game is forfeited if a player's cue ball hits the (black) eight ball first. A 'behind the eight ball' position leaves a player in imminent danger of losing.It means you have a potential problem
