The objective of the NFHS rules makers is to maintain a simple and easy to understand book and if they start including exceptions they miss the mark.

As for the double foul. Where possession actually changes determines the enforcement. For instance, is it equitable for K to commit a motion penalty and R to commit a PSK foul and have them offset? That could happen if team possession changes when the kick ends. [/B]
I hear ya Ed. But if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, then it's a duck. As much as they try to say this is not an exception, I'm not convinced. As far as making it simple and easy, they failed in my opinion by just adding a "timing factor" to the foul. That's not making it simple.

Say about answering the NF questions by BluDuc. If anyone can give solid answers, it would be you.
