Hanging on the rim question

Now to your question, in general, if something is not illegal by the rules, then it is permitted.

This statement from the person who gave us the gem, "The rules are inadequate to cover this situation; however, to maintain the spirit and intent of the rules, I have come up with a new term: the "drag."

So, in this post, if it's not illegal by the rules, it's permitted. Yet, in the other thread, since the rules don't cover the situation, (translation: not illegal by the rules) he creates reasons to rule it illegal.

Oh yeah! That makes sense!

Suggestion: Go back and apply your statement from this thread to the traveling thread. Maybe you'll then understand why that play wasn't traveling.

How in the world did a question about hanging on the rim end up in ANOTHER argument between Slider and everyone else - about punches and fighting??? Good grief!

Slider just has the way about him.
