Good point Mark. I would do the same thing. I think your point is that at this level, things can happen that can be taken care of with common sense. It may not always be strictly by the rules, but it is in the best interest of the game. We have discussed situations like this in our association meetings, and try to give the newer officials some logical reasoning of why we would do what we do. The outcome is not always what the book says, but is fairest to all.
