The Color Of Money ...

We certainly agree here. I'm tired of enforcing a color restrictions on headbands, wrist bands, and sleeves, and getting an earful of, "But we were allowed to wear that Tuesday night". That's certainly not a good way to develop good rapport with a coach before the game even starts. It's also not a good way to build good rapport with a partner that choses not to enforce such rules. The NFHS should lower their color restriction standards to only those that could affect how the game is officiated.

We probably disagree on color restrictions on undershirts. As I've stated in a previous post, different color undershirts, especially opponents with the same color undershirts, can create some degree of difficultly identifying the team that a player is on, especially in a cluster of rebounding players pushing each other, that a simple "undershirt same color as jersey" rule can remedy.
