Key phrase is breaking the plane...
Thanks BBR.
After I went back to rule 4-2-2d2, I noted that the field goal attempt is no good as soon as the kick crosses the plane of the goal line and it has apparently failed.
Lets say I'm the umpire and I stand about 6 feet tall in my shoes. If the kick hits me in the end zone it will obviously fail because the cross bar is 10 feet off the ground.
Its a simple matter of applying basic geometry.
We have a week-off over here because of the Maui County Fair. How is your season going so far?
