In basketball, of course, it makes sense that these bracelets would need to be removed for safety reasons. Given the popularity of these bracelets, and the news generated by this story which led to the overturning of the disqualifications, it would be extremely prudent for state associations to clarify this issue right now with all coaches and ADs that these yellow rubber bracelets will not be allowed for basketball games this year. Otherwise, I guarantee a few of us are going to have to deal with this issue and be the bad guys.
With that said, I think it's a stupid rule for cross country, and I'm in agreement with the final decision to overturn the DQs. If you can wear a watch, I don't think a rubber bracelet presents any more of a danger.
