Not true, and you know it.

I have never once had a problem with anyone - including you - pointing out an error that was made by an official. I make plenty of errors, and point those out also. The difference between you and I is that I made no judgment about the PERSON involved in the situation I shared. No comments about him being a coward, or being so fat he can't get up the court, etc., etc...that's the difference between pointing out a mistake and pointing out the person. But I think most of us already knew that.

Bless You All

I, too, flip to the You Make The Call section of SI Kids when it arrives. I told the kids how the ruling in the mag was flat-out wrong of they meant ON the line but not OVER the line and got the rolling eyes and the "you think you know everything about the rules" line.

So thanks for the ammunition as I reclaim my place of glory in my own home.

Whoops

I just noticed a honey-do list on the refrigerator. Pay no attention to remarks relative to glory, own home, etc. etc. etc.

You realize that this (redacted) remark undercuts your point (which is otherwise well-taken, btw).

The next year, I was asked to review the column before it ran.
Per the OP, there is no error as the OP does not provide the magazines ruling only the question.

I looked for a later post that includes the magazines ruling and haven't seen it yet.

How can there be a GLARING error, yet?

From theboys second post on this subject: Yeah, that's what I was thinking. If he stepped on the line, but not over the line, he's still out of bounds, so the play is legal. SI Kids says "no bucket".

There's your ruling.
