It must not contradict scripture. If anything contradicts scripture it should be junked.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that what we mean by sola scriptura??? The Bible, the Word of God, the Holy Scriptures, is the measuring stick of what constitutes the doctrines of the Christian faith. This by no means says that tradition cannot count for something - and I have never heard anyone say that it doesn't - it just simply means that it is the standard that all doctrine should be held to. Period.

If you agree that Holy Tradition can stand for something as long as it does not contradict scripture, which is infallible and was birthed from it, then we have no argument.

The first statement of this article says Catholics agree with Protestants that Scripture is a "standard of truth"—even the preeminent one—but not in a sense that rules out the binding authority of authentic apostolic Tradition and the Church

If you say you have never "heard" anyone say it doesn't, I ask -- haven't you "read" anyone -- especially here on the RF, members of the PCA or OPC say that?
