running the endline

Many in our state are being very liberal and letting the throwing team retain endline run privileges even if the foul or violation by the defense occurs after the throw-in ends, provided the ensuing throw-in is once again on the endline. They'll continue to do so until someone can show them a rule or case play that completely clears it up.

Maybe that is the case, but where in the rulebook does it say they can retain the privilege that the officials are allowing? There were numerous case plays in many of their literature when this rule came out that basically suggested that the only time you could retain on a violation was when a kicked ball took place or maybe a held ball during the throw-in. I would have to do some research and dig out my old NF/NASO Guidebooks, but I am almost sure there was a play that showed a throw-in that was tapped out of bounds on A in this situation and they did not allow the continuation of "running the baseline."
