    I'm actually surprised at how many do wear their flashes forward. This is a well-informed group. At the games and elsewhere, it seems that 9 & 3 predominate. I'm glad I'm not alone here with 10 & 2.

    Jack, as others have said, 10 & 2 is the correct, traditional position of the flashes.

    10 & 2 or 9 & 3 aren't quite geometric measurments either!
