Pare,

I understand trying to get every call and enforcement correct but I do believe that referring to the rule book on the field leaves everyone to believe that we did ot come prepared. You have to do what the state association demands, but I do question their logic.

If a coach ever saw us using a book to review an enforcement or interpretation we would never convince them that we don't need the book on the next situation. Everytime we had to get together to discuss something they would be asking the wing "Did you get the book to make sure your right?" I don't know any wing that wants to give a coach more ammunition.

Now, I have gotten the book out at half time and immediately following a game but never had one on the field, nor do I want to.

Good Luck,
