Stan, I believe that Mark is referring to Officiating Rule #1 - Never let a game go into overtime!
That's not Padgett Rule #1, tho. Let's just say that basketball refs have their own "tuck rule".
OK - here it is by popular demand - the first rule of officiating:

"Tuck your whistle in your shirt before you take a leak".
