NFHS Player leaving bench area

[cmathews]

truerookie,
you came in looking to improve, or at least that is what you said in your original post in this thread. With that in mind you should open up and listen to what people have to say. Mechanics and rules knowledge are very important, but what really begins to separate officials is game management. Game management is knowing when to follow the letter of the law and when to look for the intent. Sportsmanship is always a POE for the NFHS, anytime we can allow a player to exhibit good sportsmanship it should be allowed. Not to mention the fact that making a call like you are suggesting here will lead to many more problems with the game and anytime you would run into those teams in the future. Yes I am aware that you didn't make the call you are just commenting. Not that BBR, Chuck or JR need me to come to their aid, but.....I have disagreed at one time or another with each one of them, I have on many more occasions agreed with each of them, and the vast majority of the times that I originally disagree with any of them, I usually come around in due time...

TR, you might want to read some of your own posts before you start complaining about people insulting you. Your posts were dripping with sarcasm before I ever posted in this thread.

Here's some of the gems you've posted in this thread:

"Z, just so I can understand this common sense approach. (I am growing here so I can become a state level official)"

"Way to support your fellow official!!"

"It is good to know according to you, I am worthy of working some level of basketball. Thanks for the compliment. "

"A DQed player puts me into a position to make a proper call and I should ignore it because it does not pass the common sense test."

"Please do not waste your time replying to anything you feel will expose your shortcomings in that situation."

Pot. Kettle. Black.
