In Response To: Now everyone is picking nits. (Dean From Oregon)

What a "score sheet" is would be up to the discretion of the one that wrote the stipulations, would it not? There may be common definitions, but if one were looking for a way to punish Brian, semantic differences could be it. I'm not saying I think this is a score sheet; I'm saying how do we known that those making the decisions do not view this as a score sheet, especially when all three "meets" have the same meet director, scorekeeper, etc.

Not to mention that I did not see a listing for the "Strength Challenge for Cash" which was mentioned in the stipulations to see who exactly was in that. Again, I think the rule is being used poorly in this case and don't think Siders should be suspended for this, but if we're going to try to convince others of this, then we need to know the position they are coming from and not just assume that our understanding is the same as theirs. This is not "nit picking"; this is understanding all sides.
