Rhody, hopefully you'll take a step back then keep coming back. We all have varying amounts of time in this business and we all correct each other regarding terminology and other stuff. When we use incorrect terminology it can cause confusion when we explain situations to coaches and/or players...and each other. Remember: when we go wrong, the game can go wrong.

It may sound harsh since you're new but it's all said with good intentions and with the intent of helping us learn and get better.
