why is it that the jammers are released before the rear pack skater crosses the pivot line?

@jSkell27 the jammers are never released before the rear pack skater crosses the pivot line. If ever the jammers are released before all the blockers have crossed the pivot line, it's because there is either no pack, or those blockers are no longer part of the pack.

For the record, some of these title slides (the cards that introduce each jam) are not accurate. Please contact me if your league is interested in getting the full commentary on these jams.

@jSkell27 As far as I understand it, tíf ther is a "no pack" situation, the jammers are released early. That's why one team sometimes will put their knee to the ground so they're out of play. It's a fast jammer release.
