Otis, c'mout c'mout, whereever you are.

Seems like Chuck may have accidentally mis-quoted joseph. I think joseph's actual statement was:

"Not any violation or foul that occurs inside the 3 point line and below the free-throw line extended consists of a throw in from the near point, but the ones inside the imaginary trapezoid (which is from the free throw line extended to the corner...will be on the baseline"

The omission of the "Not" could be important. However, the use of the phrase "imaginary trapezoid" kinda blew me away and I have to take a nap now.

CG, I didn't misquote. Joseph went back and edited his post to correct the error. Is it ok if we leave the "parrot" posts in the thread anyway? :)

This parrot has ceased to be! This is an ex-parrot!!

Oh.

We're fresh out of parrots. How about a replacement?

:D

"CG, I didn't misquote. Joseph went back and edited his post to correct the error. Is it ok if we leave the "parrot" posts in the thread anyway?"

OK- my bad. By all means use parrots or whatever animals necessary to bring a bit of levity to the forum.

CG, just so you know (maybe it'll save you some typing), if you want to quote somebody else, you don't have to cut and paste or re-type it. Just click the "quote" icon at the bottom of the post you want to quote. A lot easier.

Kinda like this? Always wondered how you guys did that. There's no stopping me now! Thanks for the tip (not a foul tip), but a tip nonetheless.

As mick likes to say, "you own that one now". :)
