Scrimmage Kick Numbering Exception

[KurtBryan]

Dear Mbyron:

Not so again, and lastly, when we submitted everything for review, we listed in detail ALL of the rules, interpretations and also list of items that are Tangible: code of ethics, travesty of the game, on and on, etc.

Not only was everything discussed with us in great detail PRIOR to approval, but after the season was over, we followed up Fed and CIF, reviewing the FED and CIF Mission Statement item by item, for Fed and CIF, and how and why this new offensive system was GREAT for the kids and the game.

Again, you say our side's position is tiresome.........humbly so is yours.

Lastly, I did not say ESPN will be using unnamed sources in the NFL for their piece, I said, when their piece comes out, those NFL people WILL be on record.

There is plenty of room in America for various brands of football.

Have an excellent weekend officials.

Well if everyone else's position is tiresome then I guess it must finally be time for you to answer the question of what the purpose of the numbering exception is? Since it is pretty hard for you to come up with the answer I will give you a a few options:

A - To prevent players from having to change jersey numbers during scrimmage kicks downs.

B - To allow a team to not have anyone numbered 50-79 on the field when they have no intentions of making a scrimmage kick during the down.

Respectfully, Mr. Official.... that questioned HAS been answered a zillion times, and NOW to the Other question that a loud minority refuses to reply to:

"How is it possible that many small to mid-size schools have embraced the A-11 Offense, and have made it clear it gives their kids a TAD bit better of a fighting chance vs. larger teams, and that Most offcials who have ACTUALLY WORKED games involving A-11 teams have made it clear IT IS workable by their crews, and IT IS NOT a travesty of the game or unsportsmanlike?"

* Humbly, including Pennsylvania NFHS Rules Committee Member, Mr. Brad Cashman in his interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer last week...

With GREAT respect to ALL opinions, it is very clear that there is Plenty of room in America for more than one brand of football that is GOOD FOR THE KIDS.

PS - Congrats to Riverside-Brookfield (IL), a first-year A-11 team, for shattering the single game passing record with 597 yds. passing, 9 TD passes in one game.

Most Sincerely,

Really? I must have missed it. I've read your posts on here as well as Refstripes and many times you have ignored the question. Could you post a link to the post in which you answered the question? It would probably take less time to just write 'A' or 'B' as the answer to the question than to go find the link. Either way I am interested in hearing your response.

Also, don't use the "fighting chance" argument against big schools. That's what classifications are for. When I played, we were the smallest school in our classification for the whole state and we never finished worse than 7-2 playing in one of the toughest conferences in the state, and we didn't abuse the numbering exception to do so.
