That was me for several months. I was afraid that I would be eaten alive if I started posting. You guys can be quite scary at times, well, most of the time, wrong, all of the time. Now, some 4400 posts later, some with images, aren't you guys pleased that I was able to man-up, and start posting?

A Reach Around Foul ???

Better than asking about a reach around foul. A few years ago, someone actually posted a question using that phrase. Forum members had a heyday. I didn't know what that was, so I didn't understand the humor, until I searched for it on the internet. Advice: Don't do an image search.

Hold that thought, I'll be back after an image search on the aforementioned reach around foul!

What do you not understand about, "Advice: Don't do an image search."

Probably a matter of punctuation, but I took his meaning to be wonderment about where the information which tells the officials how to handle the situation was obtained. The title of his post should have looked like this: "case book, right?"

Not me. I had way more enthusiasm than brains or experience or talent or ability. I was in way over my head and had way too many urgent questions to not jump right in

Since then I've gotten a little better at officiating, and a little smarter. For instance, I've learned to always listen to Bob. And, I've just learned not to ask Bob if he's glad I began posting.

Probably would need some pretty strong filters, I would imagine.
