Are you happy now? Or are you going to continue moving the goalposts?

You say they interpret "principal" to mean "first thing to get hit" in a temporal sense - i.e. if hitter contacts body BEFORE head, or at the same time, clean hit. I am not aware that that is in fact how they claim it should be interpreted so I ask you for some statement supporting that claim.

Brother... You said that dude. What I said is that, even if contact is made to the head, the league does not view a check where the contact is a
full body hit to fall under the auspices of rule 48. But I am sure you will continue to selectively ignore Shanahan's explanations whenever they don't jive with your personal opinion.
