He said he thought of that, but felt he would probably get both coaches mad at the same time, so he just ruled that the ball hit B1's foot while the foot was on the line and he gave the ball back to team A. He didn't think he could call a kick on B1, because he never moved his leg, but since everyone saw the ball at least hit his foot and that his foot was on the line, my friend figured no one would complain about the call - and no news is good news. It turned out he was right about no one complaining.

What do you guys (and Juulie, too ) think? [/B]
I don't see what the issue is about the AP.

Why not use it? So, one coach is as little miffed. If this call sets a coach off, he or she shouldn't be out there (and will go off at some point anyway).
