I know there would be some issues if this came to pass, but it could be fun to discuss it.
BTW - I really don't care how this would affect table personnel.  |
Isn't that what the 20 sec. DQ/Injury TO is for?
If an injured player is not ready to play in the 20 sec. timeframe, then they must sit a tick.
