Yeah sure, the 15th is the deadline, but can anyone tell me why we still don't have rule books here in the Lone Star State? Discrimination? Lack of 'a special club'? What gives? I read where the boo

Glad to find out that the lack of rule books wasn't caused by some geographical oddity! As the spring floods arrive here in south Texas, I really start gettin antsy about the official rule book. Bern
