If you're going to go 'by the book' in this situation you're not:
a) using good preventative officiating
b) gonna get along with most coaches
c) in many areas, going to move up and get bigger and better assignments...

Matt, I think most of us would find a way to manage this situation. The point of this exercise is to think through the rules completely and utilize that knowledge in a similar situation when, for some reason, it wouldn't be able to be managed around. It's the point of most discussions on the board.
