That was the intent of the likely revision in post #1, but didn't want to use the word lest it invite too graphic a visualization in the mind of the reader.

Seems the C would really need to be self-disciplined to maintain focus on his primary when all the players are over in T's and L's areas.

So...are you saying you'd have to use TLC with these players?

BTW - let's say a post player swings around and smacks her defender in the face with her you-know-whats. What signal would you use?

4-24-8b might have to be expanded: "The aggressiveness with which the arms and elbows are swung could cause injury to another player if contacted."
That would, of course, affect 9-13-1 also.

Who knows if, when they make these edits to the rulebook, the casebook will ever again be in harmony with the intent of the rule (cf. the 9-9 and 9.9.1 debacle from this year)!

I always thought that would be an innovative way to swipe credit cards in a strip joint.
