What happened to the language about leading with the "crown" of the helmet? They used to use those words ALL the time. Now, if your earhole grazes someone's helmet, you've targeted them.
First off, targeting has a definition. RSJ turns his head away and puts his shoulder into the other guy's shoulder. Because he did that, targeting can no longer be called for helmet to to helmet contact. Because, he didn't target shite. He went out of his way to not hit the dude with his helmet.
Question, is helmet to helmet contact illegal? I hear those words used during calls. Is helmet to helmet contact that same rule as targeting?
The words used and the way it's enforced is downright embarrassing.

Yea. Before the targeting rule went into effect in 2013.
Targeting only requires helmet to helmet contact
