No.

Are you kidding me? I just answered "no" first, and a little pop-up told me that my response has to be 10 letters long. Wassup with that?

How about this, Brad......"no fuking way". That's 11 letters.

[ChuckElias]

Really?

wow. I just did it and that's very strange. No kidding. What is the reason behind that, I wonder? No more contests for the shortest reply. . .

I have experienced that too. I came to the conclusion, you have to speak in complete sentences.

"No" isn't a complete sentence?

[ChuckElias]

A complete sentence requires a subject and a verb. Either may be implied. But the word "no" doesn't fulfill the requirement.

Michigan does not require a signature, but it does require Name, ID#, Hometown.

I do not believe there is any place that requires an official to sign the book. I just know that in my state it is required that we do so for ratings purposes at all varsity games.

Is "I am" the shortest English sentence?

Dear Cecil:
A page of fun facts making the rounds says "I am" is the shortest complete sentence in English. Can this be true? --Jim Kepler, Chicago
Dear Jim:
No.
You object: "No" isn't a sentence! A sentence needs a predicate!
Oh, OK. Ready?
Go.
You object again: That's cheating! The subject is only implied! Who could possibly call that a sentence?
I.
Yeah, right, you say. And we're supposed to just take your word for it?

Ok, so there's no place where it is required. Got it.

Wait. . .

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Shut up is not allowed, under 10 characters.

However, shut TF up is allowed.

You're welcome Chuck.

According to the IHSA Policies/Procedures for the state tournament, the R is to sign the official score book at the conclusion of each game. If it is not done at the scorer's table, it can be done in the locker room in and must be in the presence of the official scorer and the host site adminstrator.

I have not come across an official who has signed the book in the state tournament (all rounds) or an official who knew they were supposed to sign the book.
