You guys bring up some sound arguments and I would have no problem calling this illegal formation.
Our rationale in our discussion was the following.... there's a rule that implies a snapper could stand sideways (see 7.2.3 it states in part "if it is snapped between the snapper's legs..."). On Snake~eyes argument I've always said the same thing but someone pointed out that technically the rule doesn't say anything about being on the line or a back. It says only 1 may penetrate the vertical plane through the waistline of his nearest teammate who is on his line (7.2.3).
I bought the argument at the time but I like the point of the snapper definition to invalidate the reasons why people say this is legal.
