From JRutledge: "I just wonder do you know how to put those things into your own words?"

JRutledge: I don't. The recent post you refer to was taken from page 10 of the 2007-08 NFHS Rule Book. Who can state the intent and purpose of the rules better than the NFHS? I seldom post facts that are not taken from a reliable source. You will get my own words when I offer an opinion, which, on this Forum, is very seldom, due to the expertise, and experience, of many Forum posters, including yourself. I just like to read the posts and threads, learn as much as I can from them, and occassionally post something that may, hopefully, contribute to the Forum discussion.

Also, because I'm on my local board's training committee, I have a lot of basketball officiating information saved, in document format, on my computer, and I'm not a very good typist.
