Let me just ask you a simple question, DJ. Why? Why stop the game to pull down the net? It has no effect on the game if it's up. So why not just leave it? Either the next shot will knock it loose, or some kid will jump up and get it down, or you'll have a clock stoppage anyway and you can go do it. Why interrupt the game for something that has no bearing on the game? B/c the players all point to the net? Just something to think about.

You can believe it or not, DJ. I can only tell you that this story was told to me by the assignor himself. Perhaps he made it up to emphasize a point to his audience; but I doubt it.
