Since this game began, and as long as it will be played, there will be coaches trying to fiure out ways to do someting new and suprising. That's fine and is a big prt of what makes this game special.

However, it's rarely a good thing to surprise the game officals with what someone might "think" is a totally new interpretation and test it during live play. A smart coach, with a new, great idea, will review it thoroughly with the game officials prior to the game, it's going to be tested in, to make sure he (they) agree it's permissable.

I suspect a large majority of officials would shut this new and innovative idea down immdiately as a snap infraction. It may catch a few officials by surpise, but I wouldn't count on playslike this standing.
