REPLY: Here's the rule: 4-2-2g: "ART. 2 . . . The ball becomes dead and the down is ended: ... (g) Following a valid or invalid fair-catch signal given by any member of the receiving team when a scrimmage kick or free kick is caught or recovered by any member of the receiving team beyond, in or behind the neutral zone."

Hey Tom...do you remember the official from my association (I still don't know who it was) who argued with us about this back 5 or so years ago?
