Absolutely and completely agree with that quote. I'm fairly confident that if it was done according to the Constitution, the probation was handed down with the understanding that there could be no preseason, mid-season tournaments, or post-season competition for the state title for the duration of the probation, which is one calendar year. I don't think anyone foresaw at that point that the season would be moved back and put the next playoffs outside the probation duration, and the League is bound to go by the letter of the law rather than the intent of the law if the two contradict.
Just an all-around interesting situation, but it takes things like this to get people to examine the laws as they are written and possibly modify them accordingly.
