I look at the rule as objects that are normally OOB at the start of the game ie chairs, bleachers, tables etc. If I see a towel on the floor I consider that a hazard if it is in the path of a player. I blow my whistle stop the play. Give the ball back to the team that had possession of the ball prior to the whistle. As far as the shoe. If it half in and half out when it is off the player. It should have been half in and out on the player. Should have been blown dead then! But guess I could be wrong there also!
