I am not a fan of the idea of advancing the ball. I am sure there may be other instances of this that I cannot think of currently, but when else is a team penalized without committing any infractions? I say penalized since the team that is able to advance the ball is certainly given an advantage.
The only thing that comes close in my mind is the jump ball procedure, but that could at least be argued that the team with possession should not have put the ball in position to be held. Advancing the ball is just too gimmicky for my taste.
