All the shenanigans that followed , AD stopping the game, Police escort etc. most likely would not have happened.

There still might have been some EJ's but not the "hoopla" that followed.

As you know I too am still a fan of the old FED rule no matter how dumb some people think it is.

It helped me get the games over with a lot faster too ...

Thanks
