I completely disagree that it is useless! Every sport, hobby etc has a standard! Ours doesn't...and that makes it less than what it should be. This isn't about what your personal league plays. You can play by whatever you want, but there should be something that defines what is miniature football and classifies what we do. Right now, you could build a 200 inch field with McFarlane figures and it could be called Miniature Football. Dre's idea of a cap is just it....there should be something that says, no bigger than "this", whatever "this" is or classifies that what "this" is falls under "this" classification.
Model Railroading-You can't run an O scale train on an HO scale track
Nascar-I don't see any Indy cars racing against Stock cars
Boxing-160 pounders don't fight 280 pounders
It is about a standard to give our tourneys more official credibility.
Why can't we, as a community, set some standards?
By the way, calling this discussion
useless is the same thing "they" kept telling us when we talked about a coaches association.
You got my dander up when you used that word!
