I have seen a bunch of questions about shirt pulling and if, as a tactical / technical ploy should be carded. I tried to find the USSF position paper on this, but got bored and came here instead. What is ruling here?

Here is the short answer. If you're looking for wording on the USSF site, go to www.ussoccer.com/laws/index.jsp.html click on the document "advice to referees". Section 12.7 addresses your exact question.

Thanks for the link. The 7 & 7 says it must be blatant for a card.
I don't like shirt pulling. If it happens twice, I show the card. Or if several on the same team are doing it, I let them know, and the next one is a card.
