As has been observed long ago, many times over, those responsible for the rules of the game must be painfully aware of this controversey and are expected to respond to it, one way or the other. That decision is expected shortly, and one side or the other, will likely be unhappy with the decision.

There may be resulting wailing, shouting, threatening and begging, but it will likely suffer the same fate as all the "noise" that periodically rises from different sidelines. To paraphrase an old saying, "When "noise" from a sideline is simply ignored, does it make any sound?"
When long winded self indulgent posts are written that really have no point or anything of value to add to the discussion are ignored, will they continue to be written?
