I don't see him/her, in anyway, acting like a "fanboy." I just see a poster who suggested some rules changes that he/she would like to see implemented in college basketball. It just happened that the rules changes came from the pro rule set.

We shouldn't assume the worst in a new posters...that's just a sure fire way to make sure we don't get new blood around here.

New posters who are "officials" don't post a litany list of rules they dislike on post #2 on an "officials" forum. Maybe fanboy was a misnomer, how about refereehater. They come out this time of year as well.

If "you" want to welcome all with open arms, so be it. Just don't lump "me" into that particular "we" category. Believe it or not I've been around enough to know the intent of posts like the above.

I find it kind of refreshing that he put his complaint in the form of a rule change suggestion rather than blaming in on the officials.
