His point was that the "/" separates each item and therefore the NBA logo is legal as it is a trademark. This isn't the way I've understood the rule and am sure I've seen something specifically stating the NBA logo is not approved for NFHS play. Anybody else remember seeing something stating that specifically? I don't necessarily agree with the way he's reading the rule and would like some clarification.

Okay, let me get this straight. Your president is giving you permission to ignore something that is completely immaterial to the game itself, and you're trying to find a reason to contradict him?

I mean, you don't think there are enough fashion police duties already?
