Add my agreement, too. On the topic of rules, integrity, and so on - there are some rules and interps that I really do not like. And that's in all sanctioning bodies. Problem is, the powers that be didn't care what I thought when the rules were written. So if I want to work a Fed game, I'd better call it according to their rules - same for ASA, NCAA, and everyone else. I'm not there to make a player feel good or even to make things right or fair. I'm there to call the game according to the rules.
With the helmet removal, I think Fed is a bit different, so the warning or restriction would be warranted there.
