Josh,
Unfortunately, the "memos" aren't always well communicated. The Case Book has grown from 89 to 92 pages over the past three years. While many of us attempt to read the entire Case Book cover to cover, many do not. I think that it would be really helpful if the Case Book would highlight Cases that are no longer valid -- in a special section in the back of the book -- along with a highlight of new/modified cases.

I would prefer to have a Case Book with all interps that are still valid that would be in a more complete (albeit thicker) Case Book. I carry the Rules by Topic (much thicker than the standard NFHS books) along with the Rules Book, Case Book and Officials Manual anyway.

I also have the historical Rules Interps as well. The problem is some of these have been invalidated due to Rules Changes. It would be really nice to have all current interps included in the Case Book for completeness.

That's waht I do too.

Plus, this past summer I saw a Sr Official who had a 3-ring binder with pre-games, rule changes, POE's, local league rules, etc. in it - I made myself one (also put the misunderstood rules in mine) and always carry it with my gear. It's great!
