I agree, it is a bad idea to have a rule book on the field. I call in Texas and agree with TXMike. The book is confusing enough for me and I spend 2-3 hours a week year-round studying it. A coach who is looking at it would have no clue about definitions and exceptions to the rules.

It is our responsibility to know the rules and spend the necessary time studying. My rule book is a big part of my offseason routine. The more time I spend reading it, the better off I am going to be on the field.
