Yeah, I don't see leagues changing that one.

Even more "competitive" leagues want to attract a certain number of newer, less skilled players.

While I disagree, I think the leagues will be afraid of scaring away those newer players...

I honestly like the all ball fouls rule and am glad it's official. The first league (in house) I ever played in was all ball fouls 8 ball. Imagine my surprise when I came back 12 years later and it was CB only. I mean, I've benefited from it but it's a crap rule. I recently joined an 8B Ultimate Pool League and I'm really happy it's all ball fouls. I've messed up and gave BIH probably 4X this session but I've got it more than that.

I don't see it being adopted widely at local events or leagues anytime soon but it's a good direction.
