The whole point of this thread is the fact that it is possible to wear legal compression shorts with legal socks and look that same as someone with tights on. If I typed something that said Wade's compression shorts were below the knee, that is a typo/mistake on my part. Also, yes there have been rules that I haven't known. Silly me, I don't have to open my mouth to be contrary at every, and I mean EVERY, opportunity.
Should we make it a poll and ask how many experienced refs would:
a. Tell a player they are wearing something illegal if it looks like that have on tights
b. Ask a player to pull up their uniform shorts to see if they are wearing tights or legal compression shorts with long socks
Of course the answer would have to be based on what an "experienced" official would have done before this thread.
JR, before this post did you know that any player, at any level, wore this combination that looks like tights?
