But they did not care what they taught and it had nothing to do with membership. Mechanics books are guides and states can come up with their own procedures if they like towards mechanics. And as I have stated before, our state has not handed out Mechanics Manuals for almost a decade in any sport because what the NF does is considered outdated in many cases and hard to change. So when our state sees something that does not work, they change it to what does work.

Peace
Let me guess:

State: Texas
Mechanic: Blowing the whistle upon officials entering the visual vicinity.
