I was hoping someone would mention that exact point. I gave the thumbnail sketch of the situation. The young man was exceptionally agitated, and his teammates were trying to calm him down, to no avail. Undoubltedly, his agitation was from some source, other than just the actions of the game. He was eighteen years old, and the assigner, a fellow official, had given me an outline of the standards of the inter-faith league. I was certain that the Father talked to him as he was leaving the building.
As you perceived, my input on this thread is to subtly enforce the reality that we have different standards/guidelines, depending on the environment, and at times, the venue.
Thanks for your response.
