huh... my stance on the field wouldn't really benefit from the "aproning" effect you guys speak off, and personally I prefer the look of an un-tucked jersey... We're not wearing button up shirts, it's sports gear designed to protect from bruising. I think if you're trying to avoid people from trying to achieve "Mad bounces" the rule against exceptionally baggy clothing should be enough to avoid that attitude. I just think it's a little excessive to tell people HOW they have to wear their gear.

Anyway... back to your regularly scheduled programing...

you usally have to wear long sleeves, which I hate, and tuck it in, which I also hate since I am a slob.

Those are standard tourney rules. I see them as more a guideline really. As far as tucking the shirt in, under a podpack counts as tucked

incynr8 · 07-17-2009, 01:47 PM

I still miss T shirts being allowed, but really it doesn't affect me anymore anyway

Tell you what al, yopu play my next event we will incorporate a loophole you can exploit.

I haven't tucket since my second wedding. That's almost 16 years ago. Tucking for me brings back scary memories.

Not a significant issue, and in fact less of an issue than the possibility of thumbing cocking rods. There are plenty of mechanical ways to cheat, the format itself tends to discourage such things. With limited paint, dwell ramping isn't really desirable.

like the Evil Jerseys with the overly tempting 'tshirt mode' extra stitching? Snip! Snip! Aghhhh

True about cheating, computers just make life easier, that's their purpose, replacing melted squeegies and a sniper pressed on a tree limb or thumbed.

It's not that it never gets to that point, they just don't have to specifically say "no barrel tags" because there was already a rule in place that stated no physical contact between players. Physical contact is a bad idea, weather it is a gentle barrel to the back, an open hand, or whatever you decided on using. But that's my opinion.

That's more than 4 hours though, so according to those cialis ads I should see my doctor. tlane77 I think for a non-chemical chubby it's 6 hours before its time to see a doctor. So you should be good for another couple hours. splattttttt I wasn't goin to google "chubbin" because I assumed it had to do with fat. The lard type, not the fun stuff. But what ever feelings Jeff's experiencing, then they must be of the fun like stuff... tlane77 He's got a woody for your woods.
