Thanks, Coach, that was my point in the other thread as well. There's just nothing to get worked up about here.
I should have pointed out that I am still upset about the X-Games a couple of years ago where they had the best trick competition. The competition had a time limit, but everybody kept sceaming for Tony Hawk to do a 900. He didn't get it done in the time limit, but they kept letting him try it til he did it. That was so wrong. The PGA would never have done that either.

I just get so frustrated with the lack of structure in these trick contests. I think we need an official rules interpreter to get involved and straighten this stuff out.
