Agree. 100%. Don't you guys wish that all of my posts were more like JetMetFan's, or JRutledge's, and less like Mark Padgett's?

(That's a rhetorical question with no answer expected, in fact, please don't answer the question.)

My take...both posts have their merits. There's nothing wrong with JMF pointing out that there is a difference between the NCAA-M rule and the NCAA-W. Someone will read that and learn something new...

I also think JRut has a point in that the overwhelming majority of conflicts that comes from rule differences between high school and college comes from the fact that the general public is quoting or trying to remember a men's college rule. Simple matter is many more people follow and watch men's college basketball than the women's game and will reference that rule...just like more people watch the NBA versus WNBA (though with their recent rule changes, they are pretty much, if not completely, aligned with NBA rules).

They just don't get it when I explain the correctable error rule to them. Working those games would just be a waste of my time.

Wrong, and wrong again. It's a little corner of Connecticut, not a tiny corner. It's a black belt, not a shiny black belt. Wearing a shiny black belt would be unprofessional.

Most of the Catholic schools around here, those that are lower, grade wise, than high schools, are really combined elementary, and middle, schools under one roof, unlike the public schools that have separate buildings for these lower, and intermediate, grade levels.

Well, since Billy still acts like a 6th grader, his statement makes perfect sense.

And with my size, and skills, I would make the "varsity" team. Six feet tall, two hundred pounds, fifty years of basketball experience. I would cream those little eighth grade gym rats. They can't stop me. I've got a basketball jones.
