HHH is correct when he states that, just because you have the time and are willing to do so, doesn't mean you are THE EXPERT in anything.
Been Dare;

If I may indulge you for a minute and go off on a rabbit trail, here is something that I have noticed about about local leagues. (I believe that this is what you are getting at.)

Often the rules myths of the leadership get incorporated into that league's rules. If the league president says it's one plus one, then by god that is the rule for that league.
Any number of rules myths can be adopted as gospel, and if a new coach to the league protests a game, his protest will be overturned and the rule's myth upheld as the truth. The BOD follows the leader and Carl's BRD is no where to be found.

So your statement that Wobster is the expert on rules for his league, (which you may have stated in jest) has more basis in real life than one might imagine.
