Please re-read my posts. You clearly missed my point.
I'm not complaining about the rule; I'm complaining about it not being uniform across the state.
Do you not understand?
And how would my team legally compete in AZ or Vegas, if we follow San Diego Section rules? We had players in CIF championship two weeks ago. We could have went to AZ without any practice to compete against teams that have been practicing together for weeks or months.
Yeah, yeah, whatever. The bucket hasn't changed much. It's and F'd up rule and you know it. People just look for a chance to jump down people's throat on this board. Hypocrite? where did you get that from?
I don't need your sympathy, but understanding would be nice.
Rotatorcuff! Great to see you here...Long time no see!
This was actually discussed here:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=66025 a month or so ago and I said the same thing you did about wanting the Tom Dodd rule to be adopted by every CIF district in the state.
At the end of the day I have learned to live with the good of us having the rule over the inequity it causes by others not having it, but I do understand and empathize.
I also understand your disdain for the all too common lack of HB patience, etiquette and understanding between members. I was just as guilty as the next guy of attacking someone too quickly because of the anonymity of a screen name or just misunderstanding or just plain being wrong. I decided some time back that I would try my best to no longer participate in this behavior and help take the high road by revealing who I am.
I consider OTB to be a friend of mine (as are you) and I've known him to be a standup guy. Perhaps he overreacted or just plain misunderstood in this case, but I appreciate his candor and conviction nonetheless.
Hope to see you post more, 'Cuff. Your DD had a great HS season and I'm sure that success will continue into the summer.
