This line reminds me of a story my former white hat in football told me once about doing college basketball. There used to be an annual tournament of the Concordia Colleges/Universities in the midwest, in which he worked once when it came to Nebraska. He said it was quite amusing that they'd do the introductions and the prayer and all that, and then two minutes into one of the games they'd have about 3 technical fouls called and maybe someone ejected already. The other guys on our crew looked at him like he was BS'ing. That was right before we stepped on the field to work a 8-man game between a Christian school and a Catholic School. Lo and behold, they knew he wasn't BS'ing after we got done. :D

Ronald, do you remember them saying that, or am I getting my clinics mixed together?
You may be mixed up:) but not on this issue. Taught at the NUS in VA. It is not too often I get to get a punch line in.

Okay, wheh. I know I'm crazy, but the question is, "how much?"
So yes, if it's taught at the NUS, I'd say it's a pretty well-accepted position.
Is everyone else familiar with it? Or is anyone unclear on it?
