Listen fellas..as always I appreciate the constructive criticism and once again will agree to disagree. I have umpired in 4 states now and have had this conversation in each of them with many umpires and I am not the only one to intrepret the 3rd to 1st move the way I do...no big deal. I still am confident that if I could show you physically what the example is saying we would all agree because clearly as I type something is being lost in translation but I digress.

As far as LGP in basketball under the basket...I am not the only one to hold that viewpoint either and hence have not changed my opinion based on the disagreement of some forum members.

Good thing that came out of this is I was able to waste a good chunk of a boring day at work debating for $30+ an hour...I'll chalk that up as productive day.
