After all, he does not care about me. I was just debating your weird notions about the game. Both parties know the rules and they use them the best they can for their own purposes. Maybe in one game you get away with it, in another you don't and your adversary does. In the same game you make a goal with your hand and another running 50 feet dodging 7 opponents. In both cases it's ability and using the rules to your advantage. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/4c0ad864.9040...@gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
