Mike,
Other than your well known ability to play mind games, you're not one to misstate the obvious, especially several times in one thread.
Makes me wonder about the "advantage" thing. The best I could come up with is since it is obviously an advantange to be able to grip the ball, compared with the absurdity of not being able to grip the ball, you were using the word in the rules sense of "illegal advantage." Or, you could just be playing mind games. Or, both.
