Juulie, I disagree. Nevada's post was pointed and brief, but it was hardly insulting. Sure, he made an assumption that may or may not have been wrong; but beyond that....

The over-reaction was clearly not Nevada's.

I vote to have Nevada removed, though, as he's corrected my spelling as well.

OK, everybody in favor of sending Nevada to OldSchool Land for starting this sh!t, raise your hand. Or any other appendage as desired. Rocky & Chuck....you guys stand on a chair so we can see you.

Hmmmmmmmm............

214 for and none against. Even Nevada voted for his own demise. He is smarter than I thought.

That it! Buh bye, Nevada.

Silly monkeys.......

I don't think it's necessary to impugn that someone has never read a rule book just because they're asking a question or are a player or a coach. I have ready many rule books, many times, but I'm senile, so I forget. Or the rules don't make sense. Or the gist of the rule is buried somewhere in the exceptions and the interpretations.

On the other hand, the subtlety of Nevada's initial response appeared to escape the OP, who should have read more carefully Nevada's response before assuming he knew it all. When someone takes the trouble to post an interpretation and mark it up in red to highlight the precise answer, the person who asks the question should pay attention.
