Mick, your concern on the sideline which the L is supposed to cover is valid. Look at it as if you are taking the lesser of two evils, as L I would much prefer to go ball side and get the proper angle on post play and make whatever call needs to be made (call or no-call) as opposed to covering the sideline and making sure the out of bounds is covered. You can bet that you will take a lot more heat for missing a foul than you would for missing an out of bounds, especially if that coach on the sideline is right there and sees his player get fouled. If the ball does go over to the Ls sideline quickly on a skip pass or swing the T can help by stepping in until the L can recover over to that side. Besides, usually on an a skip pass the out of bounds is quite obvious and if not you can always go by the reaction of the players or if you or your partner both don't know go with the AP. Much better choice than missing a potential foul.
heyref,
I agree.
But, for your information, yer preachin' to the choir.
