Which goes back to my very first post on this thread:
Quote:
It appears that the rule book contemplates that 0 and 00 are allowable but that no team may have both.
The question becomes: is the reason for "no 0 and 00" because the rules contemplate them as the same number?
If so, then there is no T since 0 and 00 are the same number.
If not, then the rules view them as different numbers and the player is not wearing a proper number as reflected in the book and its a T.

And subsequent analysis that one could argue the rules consider them different numbers.
This is a two step analysis and people just want to jump to the end. The steps are:
1. Is it a T?
--if yes, go to step 2; if no, you call nothing.
2. If a T, do you call it?
--this is the judgment part
You can have a discussion about step 1 even if you agree that at step 2 you wouldnt call it.
As for typographical errors, that is a different issue. Here Nevada's issue was 0 was on the roster provided, 0 is in the book. Not a typo. Not entered incorrectly. Not misspelled. And 00 is on the jersey.
Again, I am not saying call the T or not. I havent had this situation and am a newbie. But I like the discussion, particularly as to the judgment part of part 2.
