zm1283: I've had it with this myth, so it's going on the list. Welcome to the Mythbusters. I'll send you your official Mythbuster's badge, you know the "Fashion Police" badge, and your secret decoder ring, in Monday's mail.
A held ball occurs when opponents have their hands so firmly on the ball that control cannot be obtained without undue roughness. Action of arms and elbows resulting from total body movements as in pivoting or moving to prevent a held ball or loss of control shall not be considered excessive. It is a violation for a player to excessively swing his or her arms or elbows, even without contacting an opponent.
