Then, hopefully there are not a lot of unscrupulous ones doing the job, but I think there are plenty who would simply not tell anybody. (hee, hee, I got away with one for the team) or (they're just kids and that's a stupid rule, anyway) For one to hold the T and use it, I don't know. Most wouldn't be that devious, and besides that, they wouldn't think of it.

That's a big part of the problem...how many scorers really fully know the rules/responsibilities involved with the position?
In all actuality, it needs to be penalized immediately after being discovered, not just be ignored until it suits the situation.
