You mean wrist is part of the ball? I was absent the day they taught that.
I think that is the ref arguement to justify missing the foul. Same goes for the Reggie Jackson out of bounds ball last night.
They missed the foul, thinking just the hand was hit, so now the wrist becomes part of the ball.
Really they need to change replay rules or just get rid of it. This is silly.
And Ogaju, i agree about star treatment creating a very unfair advantage. I wish the playing field were level. It's been a problem for as long as i can remember.
