Home Team wear Dark

[JRutledge]

Based on what my state went through, I am giving a T. I will let everyone else deal with the fall out.

I really don’t know why this wouldn’t be a T situation. They had all summer to order jerseys.
However, the post about the fire is a little different and was properly reported.

So you're double T'ing to start the game?

Doesn't the intent and purpose of the rule enter this discussion? What is the purpose of this rule? Different colors for obvious reasons. Recently amended from light/dark to specify white for one team. It just so happens the rule was written that the home team wears white so as to avoid confusion as to who wears what. In this case for whatever reason, the home team was unable to wear white. But the home team cleared things in advance with the visitors, so the visitors wore white and there was no confusion. I see it as a non-issue.

I believe the T would go to the home team. They visiting team would be the one that was accommodating to not have confusion.

That ain't part of the rule.

Well it is also not apart of the rule to allow teams to wear contrasting uniforms after this situation, but that is what we would do and many would allow. The rule puts the onus on the home team in my opinion. If the home team does not wear white, they are going to be held responsible in my eyes. If the visiting team wore white or uniform to specifically contrast with the home team wearing a non-white uniform, I am not giving the home team only a T. And there is no case play that addresses the situation specifically and if anything this falls on Rule 2-3. You do not have to like it, because it is my opinion and that is what I am going to do. You can do what you like when you are in that situation.

I just need to verify that this goes to the coach.
