Wink not so fast, Camron old buddy

[QUOTEI believe that is largely a safety issue...an passed/incoming ball may hit them in the face without warning. The person with the ball is not going to be hit in the face with the ball, thus it is not a safety issue. [/B][/QUOTE]

Camron - a few weeks ago at The Hoop in Beaverton, I had a player holding the ball in front of her face when the defender smacked it. It hit the offensive player right in the nose and made it bleed (the nose, not the ball). OUCH!

Of course, this has nothing to do with the question.
