All these different rulings, and case plays. Pretty soon each of us will need to have a subscription to the baseball rules equivalent of the IRS Tax Code.

I doubt we'll be seeing a change by FED anytime soon. I know there's been a push to re-structure the FED obstruction rule to model the two type's defined in OBR, but according to Tim C the NFHS rules committee has no intention of implementing the change.


Tim.
