Mr Umpire, you are correct, there is no excuse for making a mistake in a rules interpretation. However, the mistake was made, and Buckeye had the courage to post his mistake in order to learn from it. I applaud him for that, and so should you.
My point, had you been his partner, what would you have said during your post-game discussion? That is how I approach posting on this forum. Would you have skewered him and not provided him guidance?
