Mike, don't let my Join Date fool you. As of until June or so, I hadn't visited this board for nearly five years.

I kinda figured that's what "NF" stood for. But since there are so many differences between OBR and FED when it comes to the balk rule, I didn't think what the big boys did on the pro field made much of an impact on high school umpires.
