2> The bump is, and always has been, part of the field. As such, teams can (and will) be pinned against it.

None of these will stop effective defense. Good defensive teams will keep offensive teams from just lining up and shooting.

Now lets all just take a deep breath. Things aren't as bad as it seems ... really.

I find it a complete waste of time to whine about rule changes, and a much better use of my time making sure my team knows the rules and knows how to play all aspects of the game (defense included) within those rules. I might suggest others do the same.
