re: Pitchers wearing playcard wristbands

I was always made to take off any wristbands I had on when I played in high school when I came in to pitch because they were "distracting to the batters." I remember chad jones having to take a sharpie and color in the lettering on his glove for the same reason one game. One would think having a wristband with a big white notecard on it would fall under the same principle.
