Re: FIRST Rule Changes
Martin,
Give me a fair analogy PLEASE!
I'll give you one. The NBA implements a new rule that, in the 3-seconds crease, ONLY THE OFFENSE CAN JUMP FOR REBOUNDS. The DEFENSE MUST KEEP THEIR FEET ON THE GROUND.
This is the best analogy to the situation with loopers, and it points out why a rule change that allows expansion at either tower is clearly best solution.
Loopers will still be able to compete effectively, but they will have learn how to defend their turf too.
End of story.
