I agree with Buck here. If your partner is not applying the correct rule or interpreting it the wrong way, that needs to be corrected, whether the teams know the right rule or not. If you don't, then it will make you BOTH look bad, not just your partner.

Just like Buck said, if you let an incorrect ruling stand, then have the same team, and the same rule and then use the right ruling, you are opening yourself up for a big argument. What are you going to say, "Well, I knew what the right ruling was, but my partner didn't ask for help so nothing I could do, but now we are doing it right." Not very good officiating in my opinion.

I hear officials here all the time complaining about how the coaches and players don't know the rules. Personally, I would not let an incorrect ruling stand regardless of whether the teams know the rule or not. How are they going to learn if we don't apply the correct rulings every time.
