with that said, it would seem to me then that you would prefer to work with a partner that could make up for your deficiencies, i.e. rules applications.

if you're not good at rules applications, but one of your two partners is, then he/she can save your butt from incorrectly applying rule 2-10 like you recently did in an AAU game. you yourself came back on and admitted that you kicked that.

on the other side of the coin, if you're working with something that lacks the ability to "manage a game" the way you do, then you'd be able to help that person work a better game.

part of being a R and not a U1 or U2, is recognizing the abilities of those on your crew and letting them utilize their strengths to better the officiating team.
