As Eashshire says, shouldn't the widest possible distribution and understanding of the rules be a primary goal?

You would be surprised how many people do not even know what the NF is. There are people that believe in my state that the IHSA comes up with the rules changes and blame them for when changes take place they do not like. You really think a fan is going to know where to look for this information? Fans are ignorant and always will be when they only worry about these things when something "wrong" happens in their mind.
