[Mark Padgett]

Despite what some of you have said, there is no doubt that the officials handled the situation correctly. I have done literally hundreds upon hundreds of running clock rec games. If the rules state (and they usually do) that the clock stops only for timeouts, then when the timeout is over, the clock starts - period! Since this did not occur during the "stop clock" portion of the game, the officials were absolutely correct in starting the clock when the ball became live. I have never done it any other way and I have never seen it done any other way.
