I got that, but I would tell them not to do that. For one if the ball goes the other way, he now has a longer way to go and might get beat worse than he would have normally. Also he is the one that chops the clock, so there is no need for the table to have a perfect few. If they start the clock how they are supposed to watch the umpire, not the play. I just think that is a bad mechanic and for those that always want to reference a book, I have never seen a book that states you are on one side or the other (maybe it has changed).

Peace
