[Quote]Rule 4-42-4- "The defender should NOT be penalized for leaving the floor vertically OR HAVING HIS/HER HANDS WITHIN HIS/HER VERTICAL PLANE".[Quote]

I agree with this statement...if the offensive player does not have the ball.
If the offensive player has the ball then all bets are off, IMO.
This isn't some sort of "foul free zone" is it?...and since the rule dosen't state one way or the other, we are stuck with that darned ol' common sense thing aren't we?
