Wow. Okay. No, it hasn't made it "over to the FC;" it has obtained FC status. Those are not mutually inclusive. One is a physical location, one is a status applied without regard to the ball's physical location. I don't really know that this is worth debating anymore, but now you're suggesting that "over" = not physically over the division line, but instead that "over" = having obtained FC status, which is not quite what you were stating earlier in the thread:

But again, I think we've about exhausted this one.
