Actually Mike, team A does not need to be consulted at all. Since team B got the ball with clean hands, they have the only decision. If they accept A's penalty, B's foul will result in a double foul and replay. If B declines A's penalty, B's must be enforced and B will retain the ball. A has no penalty options. The thing in this one is if B declines A's foul, it will result in a safety against team B.

Never say never....I can't imagine such a scenario but A does have the right to decline B's penalty which would result in a touchdown for B. That would be a case where I as the referee don't give the options as much as I tell the A captain, "You don't want them to have the touchdown, do you?" [/B]

Actually Steve team A does not have any options if B accepts A's penalty. See rule 10-2-2 where after describing a similar situation it says "in this case the team that was not in last possession has no penalty options and the foul against R/B will be enforced.
