4-7-1: Blocking is illegal personal contact which impedes the progress of
an opponent with or without the ball.

No need go 6 - 1/2 dozen or AP, Welpe has been trying to tell us all afternoon that it is a block. I agree. The definition in 4-7-1 defines it exactly. Why not use the correct mechanic for a block which is the correct definition of what happened?
