Its a love hate thang.

As for responsibility PU has the hands, feet and 24" violation, BU has the hands, feet and when working 3man mechanics and while in the rotated position the U3 will help with the 24" also.

Personally, I WISH they'd move the rubber back to 46' and let them do whatever the h3ll they wanted to so long as they stayed within the 8' circle.. But that's just me.

Think of the trees we would save with the thinner rulebooks.

If that's the case, simply give us the option to get the PDF version of the rule book. I've modified mine to make it easily searchable. I can drill down to the rule and sub-rule and jump through the rules quickly.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

NFHS is on board with pdf and it sure is nice....

However I still prefer to have both options (hard and soft copy).
I'm still not comfortable with using my laptop while sitting on the crapper....

At least give us the option, you know? Or provide some way for the registered ASA umpires like myself to get the PDF version.

Though my modified version of the PDF sure is handy.

Why would you use your webcam to verify that? Can't your wife just tell you?
