So what if he had one in the same path that he moved along and doesn't change the fact A1's going to land on him?

I'm just rehashing the same argument at this point. I still do not believe that is the intent but I understand the rule argument even if I do not agree.

Admittedly I have yet to see this so it's all theoretical at this point but if I do I guess I'll grit my teeth and call it a block so that I can move up or not lose games.

Don't do that, it's not good for your whistles, and grinding your teeth will make it harder to eat cookies later.

Heh, I bit right through a Fox40 at the end of last season during a youth game. Guess the rec league moms were getting to be too much.
