I refer to it as a baseline . . . but I also make frequent references to bankboard.

Shouldn't this be an official official poll? Otherwise it's not scientific.

End line (Rule 1-2). I think the baseline is the bottom of the square "target" on the backboard, although I can't find it in the book right now.

I use endline when talking to uptight refs so I'm not considered a moron.

Among everyone else, I use baseline.

Baseline, though endline is technically (rule) correct.
