NEW YEAR = NEW RULES (maybe).......

This one has always puzzled me
--- End quote ---
We have discussed this several times (not this year) and the majority feeling that by awarding AFD on personal fouls involving a defenseless player( passer,kicker,snapper,holder ) places those fouls at a more severe level. Also, we try to keep an even balance between the offense and defense and am unable to add any strength to PF's by the offense as LOD & AFD are not compatible.
