IMHO, you learn a lot more here at the forum if you have your rule book and case book by your side. I find that if I follow the thread using my books, either to come up with the correct rule application of a poster's sitch; or to follow the citations that the vets post in their replies, I learn the rule, the interpertation of the rule, and the proper application of the rule more thoroughly. I tend to retain it better (especially in the heat of game), as opposed to rote memory. I think this is a good approach, if like me, you're a newer official.
Thanks KJ. I'm not a newer official, I was just too lazy to get my rulebook that I thought was in the car, but was actually in my gym bag that I took with me last week to pick-up basketball so I could read a few things when I'm not playing.

And I know some of us only knows when someone's joking about anything when he/she puts in an emote (i.e. ) but I was actually just kidding with TJ when I said that. I like to kid a lot.
