Nope, I said what I said because I don't really think very highly of your rules knowledge. What you posted was completely contadictory to some very basic written NFHS rules. And what you should do with players wearing jewelry during warmups
is a basic rule. When anyone posts arguing that you shouldn't follow a very definitive case play, you have to wonder about their rules knowledge. And contrary to your statement above, there is absolutely
NO judgement involved either in how to handle a player wearing jewelry during warmups. They
immediately remove the jewelry or they
immediately go sit on the bench.
If your fellow high level HS officials are following your lead, then your fellow high level HS officials don't know the rules either.
If you don't know the rules, then you do need to read the rules and learn them. It's that simple, and it's got nothing to do with "self importance".
