I always wanted to ask, 'What would you do if a player moved?' But that is not worth a halftime discussion. I actually saw an official make a player move his foot. Would not allow him to straddle the division line.

Zoochy: Thanks for helping me to make my point.
I absolutely love this artificial intelligence image that I created.
This was good reason to post it again.
