Mulk,

I do not think he said to speed it up, just to speed it up. He said that the time it took looks even worse than if they had just come together and did what is right. Having a 5 minute conversation looks really bad. Yes, it looks bad. You already screwed up, now you have to have a debate over what to do next. You do not have 5 minute discussions on any other decisions made during the game, unless you have a fight or some really unusual situation that might not even be covered in the rules. This situation is covered and had only a one option to handle. And yes, if you discussed the possiblities of this happening, you can discuss what you are trying to avoid. We do it all the time in pregames across the country.

What is your issue with a pregame when anyone mentions it? Especially when this comes up about this issue? Do they not have pregames in your area? Do they not discuss the possible situations that might want to be avoided?

Why is this always an issue with you?

Peace
