Yeah, that was some debate, all right. I seem to remember that almost everybody thought you either continued your 5-second count or else you had a do-over. If memory serves, there were only 2 people on this whole forum who realized that it was really an immediate violation. Now. . . who were they? It's so long ago now, I can't really recall. . . Was it JR? No, I'm pretty sure it wasn't. . . Dan? No, not him. . . Must've been Tony, then. Wait a minute, no. It was wasn't Tony. . .

Jeez, I'm really stumped. Maybe one of you guys remembers. Anybody?
I remember.

Nobody had it right because there wasn't a definitive answer under the rules until the FED issued one. We were all guessing.

Iow, guessing right is a helluva lot different than being right.
