First of all, welcome to the board, but...Nope. Ya won't find it 'cause it's not there. The Fed sees fit to address arm compression sleeves, uniform logos, undergarment color...where ya stand during time outs...but not what to do at the most critical point of a close game. It really would be simple...either yes or no. But for as long as I have been officiating, it's been debated and there seems to be no consistency whatsoever from one association to another, and in some cases one crew to another. Kinda curious.
