Explain which part you didn't really understand.  Or......if my arm's up......(and by your own admission)....haven't I made the call (albeit non-verbally)?
 
Sometimes I think some of you understand FULLY what the poster is trying to say......but would rather pick nits. | 
	
 Didn't mean to be picking nits, really.  For me, it was this: "I'm LIKELY to DISREGARD the contact.....unless I have OBS" that bothered me.  "unless you have OBS" --- it IS obstruction.  A newbie reading what you posted might misunderstand the rule based on what you said there.  I would hope that ANY new umpire would not "disregard the contact" on a play like this.  It may turn out to be nothing to verbalize or award ... but I hope no one actually disregards it.  Again - not picking nits.
