I hate to keep on and keep on... but jeeeeeeesus
That was a starting parameter last year.. and it just makes sense..
touching a loading zone is ridiculous, serves no purpose, just whatever.. every rule that exists in FIRST till now has had a purpose-- whether it be for safety or whatnot.. this has none.. and if you give me one I'll concede

and if there is no action taken to clarify how it will be judged this next weekend is going to be mayham..

can you all not see what will happen? one of 3 things
case 1 -- the judges realize how petty it is and only get on teams who clearly violate the rule (their base is outside the triangle)
and people realize how much we blew this out of porportion

case 2 -- Some calls are made some aren't... so it becomes a "why didn't you call that ref" and teams become very upset

case 3 -- Teams are clearly over the triangle.. and the refs are soo into the rule.. some matches end in a 0-0 tie.. "so it would have been easier to have put an aluminum soda-can on the field and waited for the 10 points you got for staying behind the line - and gone HOORAY, we are soo good Pepsi sponsors us btw

maybe I'm being a bit dramatic.. but people will be up in arms like the teather rule...
