Re: About being overweight and exceeding your size requirements – the need for reinsp
wow this is a hot thread

I for one, never understood why teams were allowed to play (practicing is OK) before fully passing inspection, and I think the option to conditionally pass should be excersized only in very odd circumstances.
We were 10 lbs overweight and about an 1/8 of an inch over sized (washers sticking out) on Friday, and we missed the rest of our practice matches to get it legal (we succeeded). Our team makes it a point to get inspected by or shortly after lunch so that we have time to make modifications if necessary and, to my knowledge, have never needed to get conditionally passed.
