You're no more liable if you do it then if someone else does it and you don't notice that they didn't do a good enough job.
If that's your worry, then you'd better not ever get a towel to wipe off the ball because if you don't get it all dry and the ball slips out of someone's hand and causes an injury you are liable. If someone trips over their shoelace and gets hurt you are liable because you did not immediately stop play when it became untied.
A little common sense please.

OK, I just don't wanna do it either. I'm with Dan.
"You the home coach? There's water on the floor over there that you need to get wiped up. Give me a shout when you're done; I'll be over at the scorer's table getting a drink of water and checking out the gabonzas on the mother in the 4th row".

Is that a pea in your pocket or you glad to see me?
