Camron, I have the utmost respect for you from your posts and you are always a positive contributor, which everybody appreciates. But, in my humble opinion, you're making a very silly argument. The net is still suspended beneath the ring, even if it's contacting the ring in an unusual way. It's certainly not suspended above the ring. It's not hovering in midair. It's suspended from the ring.

The fact that it's attached at all the usual places, and also touching the top of the ring in one unusual place doesn't mean that it's no longer suspended from the ring.
If the net is lying across the top of the rim, it's not suspended at all. If the net is just a little tangled but entirely below the rim, I may let it be until the next whistle. It depends on how stuck it appears to be.
