The FED rules have been stated very clearly.

---Yes they have but they don't appear very clear---

I've about decided that you like to stir a pot and then you don't have the rules to back it up.

---Call it what you want. I call it finding an answer with an adult conversation since it's all apart of the learning process. Pot, yes, there is an old saying about what the pot calls the kettle.---

If you can show me by rule in FED, then I'd believe you, but you can't.

---And you did? If you've read my posts you see where I've cited FED, NCAA, and OBR. Nobody, INCLUDING YOU, has shown when the TOP ends. I'm not splitting hairs here. If NCAA considers it at the release and clearly defines it that way, what makes you think that FED hasn't just overlooked that. It seems they've overlooked one or two things over the years you know.---

Have a good season, as I stated before if you keep making these third world calls you're going to have a long season.

---This looks like where the adult conversation regresses.---

I like Jim's statement above. Baseball is just not that hard.

--Jim is correct. When you go digging for boogers you find them. I'm sure he'd also say that the cream rises to the top in the big games when people are depending on umpires having the guts to step up and make tuff call. The guys who choose what rules they decide to enforce don't make it to the big game.--

It's odd that several people have said they've never seen this play. It has happened several times in our state deep in regional and sectional play. It does exist. People just don't recognize it.

Thank you David!
