Who was it on this Forum who said, and I'm paraphrasing here, you can't do wrong if you follow the rules as written? C'mon, fess up to it. It was a good line, as I remember.
In the first place, attorneys know the rule book even less than coaches.

In the second place. "That's a thought. Here's another thought."
