OK, Rut . . .
Time to hit you with this . . . in 1999 and 2000 I scored 100% on FED Test II. I say this ONLY to assure you that I kinda understand FED rules.
I also for the past two years have been the trainer for our 1st and 2nd year umpires. I say that ONLY to let you know that I have a little experience in TEACHING FED.
As in Alabama, Portland, OR uses the Fed Manual ONLY as a reference guide. This is one reason we are allowed to wear pleated pants.
Now Rut, you can ask for and quote citations from now till ever. You can use this device to "show" how smart you are.
As a group we simply offered to answer your question. And that we did. I am not here to argue, I am not here to debate.
I am simply here to learn.
Be rest assured, I will not trouble you by answering ANY of your posts again. Life goes on son . . . with you or without you.
