Again, IMO, not my job to "make" a player participate if a Coach dosen't want him/her to play.
Some of us talk about Official's liability...can you imagine "making" a player play after the Coach has told you he/she is injured and then he/she gets hurt...OUCH!
IMO,Rainmaker handled the play properly as per the rulebook,Dude.She didn't make the sick substitute play.She did make the other substitute play,as per the rules quoted above.

Did I read you right above? Are you saying that we shouldn't enforce that rule?
