Great, thanks.

Anyone ever shot steel cased 9mm ammo? Read conflicting views on what it can do to a gun, how dirty it is, and accuracy. Just curious.

After checking these sites, I still think good ole Wally world may be cheapest. I've been shooting federal FMJ at the range, and walmart has them for under 11$ a box.

Thanks.

This isn't baseball. You can't really expect a good hop with a football kicked full force into the ground directly at you. Maybe a bouncing pooch kick.

I agree with everything you just stated, but in this case, once blue crosses his restraining line, he could be blocked. Otherwise, he could headhunt and wipe someone out. You have to take in consideration specific definitions and designations of terms. Football rules are a royal pain in the arse because definitions change so much in a play. For instance, how long is a quarterback considered a passer and have protection from roughing the passer? It's all really interesting and frustrating at the same time.

Also, you're misinterpreting the rule. Once recieving team crosses it's restraining line like blue did, and the ball has touched the ground, which it did, he is fair game. The way you state it, the recieving team could run and smash a kicker before the ball goes ten yards, but a kicker cannot.

If it had gne ten yards yes. But once it hits the ground, if kicking team touches before ten yards, it's called first touching. Receiving team gets the ball at that spot. In my opinion, blue was blocked (legally) into the ball and by rule, that negates te receiving team touching it. That is revihewable by the way. Not the blocking penalty, but the fact that he was blocked into the ball. But it was his fault for going to get the ball before it went ten yards. That's fundamentals.

Yes there is. Rule doesn't specify.

The key the it hit ground means the receiving team is noblonger protected. Kicking team cannot recover until it goes ten yards, but once it hits the ground the receiving team can be hit without penalty.

By rule, once a kick is grounded (touched the ground) the receiving team is no longer protected. Good no call. LSU should not have touched the ball before it went ten yards.
