Rich, I don't want to jump into the philosophical debate of how much officials should insert themselves into the process, but I think we can agree that not every official takes as hard a stance as you do on this and can also agree that captains come out and haven't been coached on how to handle the toss.
Any coach that has been burned by that situation has a clear motivation for wanting to do the toss early and away from the field so he can directly make the choice.
I'm just curious as to if we as a body believe that is the motivation or is it to get a jump on planning offense vs. defense???
