Period."), and if all officials would enforce these rules in all their games, then I believe that 99% of the problems would go away.

As I stated in my earlier post regarding a Catholic middle school league: If a bunch of rinky dink "tween" age players, with volunteer coaches, can get these rules right, why can't these rules be followed in high school programs?
To me the fashion rules are easy, just not enforced very well.
