Folks,

Let's try to remain civil around here. Crew was trying to answer a question and used a very commonly used term. And he gets blasted for it! If you don't like his philosophies, that is fine and good, but there is no need to try to tear down every word someone says who does not have the same ideas as you do.

BTW, many people use the term "base line" for the end line in the front court. They use the term "end line" to be the line at the end of the back court. By doing this, it can help to identify which line is being talked about.

If you don't like this method of communication, then don't use it. If it makes sense and helps you to referee the game better and helps you know what your partners are talking about, then you are better off for it.
