I could care less what a guy has on his feet, as long as he is safe and able to get on top of the call.

I don't either, but some were worried about it and even asked me when those pictures were posted. But I knew before that year what was allowed at least when Anthony was in that position. Again, I like to ask the people that are making the decision so I can reference them specifically. No big deal to me and it was not a big deal at the time.
