You're preaching to the choir here, coach. You're not going to find many officials on this forum who will stick up for that ref. He should definitely know better. That goes without saying; which, I guess, is why it went without saying.

Coaches and players, however, often think they already know the rules well enough and it would never occur to them to get a rulebook and study up. So we tell them that it might be to their benefit.
