Good gracious Marie! You want to talk about "crossed up"...
Last week our local rules interpreter told us that these two bats had been declared illegal...BUT...that there was a review pending and the possibility remained that the bats would be allowed. He promised to update us as soon as he had more info.
During the course of this past week, several discussion boards have posted memos from various FED sources telling us that the bats have been deemed legal. Good enough- that clears that up.
At tonight's meeting, our interperter starts off by saying he has an update on the two bats. "Great!", I think- now everybody in our association will be on the same page and we won't have any issues with these bats once the season starts.
He then proceeds to tell us that he received a memo from Kyle McNeely of the NFHS Rules Committee that stated the Rebok bat had been reviewed and approved...BUT (another BUT)...THE DIMARINI BAT AT THIS TIME IS STILL ILLEGAL!
In the course of one week, I have heard rulings that both bats were illegal, that both bats are legal and that one bat is legal, the other isn't!
I don't think that you can get any more "crossed up" than that...man, you just gotta love a good cluster..ummm...cross up.
