And, we could remember that there are a finite number of words in the book to cover an infinite number of possibilities. Since the play being discussed is extremely unlikely, it would not likely be one of the defined possibilities.
If we were defining the rules of this new-fangled game called basketball, would we want the play to be legal or illegal? How do we think the FED would rule (what is the "intent and purpose" of this rule)?
