I was also asked by my partner this week when I did 7th and 8th grade games this question: If the game is not close toward the end and the teams wanted to get subs in without calling a TO, should we (refs) stop the game and allow them to enter? During a part of the game when there is little to no action. I know it's not legal, but he got feedback from AD's and coaches who would appreciate this. Your thoughts?

Well, they do it in the pros and in college, and occasionally in hs. It's not called a substitute stoppage, it's called a "media time-out." Can't see that this would be a bad thing in ms.

Not that I'm nit-picking you or anything - and lawd knows you never nit-pick anything here so I feel bad bringing this minor point up - but the rules for media timeouts are well defined under the ncaa and have nothing to do with the play we're discussing.
Oh yeah, in response to the original post: find a way to let the kid into the game.

It was a joke.
Ha ha.
Thud.
Like most of my jokes.
