To say that you can't put any time back on because the clock was a little blurry to the official is absurd.

Absurd? Naw, your highlighted statement is absurd. It directly contradicts NFHS rule 5-10-1--
"The EXACT time observed by the official may be placed on the clock."
It's the rules, whether you happen to agree with them or not. Definite knowledge is what you see, not what you guess.
If you can find a rule
anywhere that will let an official
guess at how much time to put back up on the clock, please feel free to cite it.
If you put "something" back on the clock even though you aren't sure what that "something" should accurately be, what do you plan on using to justify your actions post-game?
