Again, written with no real knowledge at all of rules-writing.

The rules--NFHS, NCAA & NBA-- have all been amended, altered, revised, etc. every single year going back 50 years. The rules have constantly changed, and are constantly changing, at all levels to keep pace with how the game is changing. If you'd ever read a damn rulebook in your life, you might have known that.

It's sadly apparent that your total knowledge of the rules was gained from watching television. It's even sadder that it doesn't stop you from posting about something that you know absolutely nothing about.
