Dan,
I've got to take exception with your statement that ..."we'll interpret rules and apply them differently...".
This is a dangerous statement as we shouldn't interpret rules in any way except according to the rulebook and the casebook. If we cannot find the answer in those two publications, then we must seek guidance from NFHS or NCAA.
Now, we may apply them differently, as they pertain to advantage/disadvantage, The Tower Principle, time of game, etc.
This will help us in our goal for coaches to believe we are consistent from game to game and from official to official.
