A held ball occurs when opponents have their hands so firmly on the ball that control cannot be obtained without undue roughness.

I have never heard this "myth" expressed by anyone, anywhere, at any time. Isn't there some sort of minimal threshold of frequency for a given misconception before it gets labeled a myth?

I don't call Adam and Jamie every time my Mom or son says something stupid.
