This is how it can get ridiculous, MikeL, drifting to expand the concept of Advantage/disadvantage to support the ridiculous attempts to find some imagined illegality with the A-11 Offense, is trying to stretch an otherwise valid point way, way beyond where it was ever intended to reach. The dots between point A and point B don't come anyway near connecting.

Excuse me Mr. Rutledge although our judgments may well be built on interpretations and opinions, those interpretations and opinions we all relate to are those made by people who have been recognized and are empowered to make them, rather than individual whim and personal conclusion.

Although total consistency is as elusive as perfection, you might consider the advice of Mr. Lombardi applicable, "Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence." (V.Lombardi)

Trying to justify ANYTHING to the manner in which the foul of "Hurdling" is, and has long been, assessed and determined is a fool's quest, I'm not going to touch with a 10 foot pole.

Daggo66, sorry if you were offended, but the assessment you made, about your State Interpretation meeting, was simply ridiculous and didn't make any sense.
