As the WH, if I survive to make it that far, I would never intentionally block the view of the player between him and his sideline. However, if he chooses to look the other way and make the mistake, I mean decision on his own, that's his choice.

I WH on Friday nights and I *encourage* the kids to get the "right" answer from the sidelines.
On this play I would lay out all the options to the captain, including telling him that accepting the penalty will give A another shot at the endzone. The kids deserve to know the implications of any decision -- and we're not out there to show everyone how smart we are at the expense of the teams.
