My local assigning commissioner wants to know if anything "odd" happens in our games, no matter how minor it may seem. He prefers to hear from the officials before he hears from coaches, and/or athletic directors, and/or principals.

That's everybody... As well as common sense.

I was specifically talking about how I handled a situation during the game when I couldn't call a commissioner or supervisor or state board.

The act of taking a few seconds to write something in the scorebook may have caused the head coach to take pause and reconsider the ramifications of reentering a possibly concussed player. Good idea. Safety first.

Shoot, the coach was hesitant to keep him out the game immediately after the injury.

I saw the kid's head hit the ground and his initial wooziness.
