Jurassic, your ability to understand the world outside your preconceived ideas and notions is what is really a pile of steaming doo doo. You seem to get so bent out of shape if someone doesn't word something the way you feel it should be worded. You show that again you put words and meaning into the my post that were not there. And if you don't understand an explaination, then you immediately attack the poster on their competency and rules knowledge.
Obviously my approach is different. I value everyone's input and garner knowledge from how my fellow officials approach different situations and how they go about explaining them. Everyone comes from different backgrounds and approaches, berating someone b/c their way is not your way is not, IMO, very useful.

I quoted your exact statement verbatim. That statement was completely wrong and erroneous as per both of the NFHS & NCAA rulesets. Don't you get bent out of shape when somebody points out your very obvious lack of basic rule knowledge in this particular situation. That ain't attacking anybody. That's pointing out a fact. And that's the whole idea of this forum.

And if you do happen to still think that your statement is correct, may I suggest that you try and dig up some rules citations to back up your premise. Good luck with that.

Love, JR.

This may not help, but I'll take a shot. 10.6.7 Comment. Screening principles apply to the dribbler who attempts to cut off an opponent..........

Now, we never think of a dribbler as setting a screen, but the principles still apply in certain situations. The same would be true of the guy who thinks he's through setting his screen and is now a "cutter."

What!?!? I think you are just trying to make this a longer thread than the "52 years old...." thread

No, you didn't. You focused on one sentence and one word. Granted by using the word "any" I was speaking in a generality regarding the immediate action involved. You took it to mean ALL contact regardless of any other factor. I can understand the reasons this would confuse some.
I only get bent out of shape when you jump to conclusions before you have all of the information clarified. Instead of indicting someone's rules knowledge and ability, it might be a good idea to ask that person to expand or be more specific on the certain words or phrase that are causing concern.
