Things Officials Should Probably Not Be Saying In A Game ...

Plus, only one foot has to remain over the thirty-six inch "spot", there is actually quite a bit of movement allowed on a designated spot throwin. Get out your tape measure and give it a try.

Not trying to be funny or sarcastic. JRutledge said he hadn't heard anything that he would use instead of "Don't move." I was trying to come up with something that can be communicated quickly, that is factually correct, and lets a thrower know what he/she CAN do.

I don't see this as a rules clinic, but that's me.

I do know that "only one foot has to remain over the thirty-six inch "spot", there is actually quite a bit of movement allowed on a designated spot throw-in." See post #88

Hate is a strong word, doncha think?

I thinks that's enough smilies for now...
