True, the game has been stopped, but how often in situations of a student-athlete being injured, is a parent actually summoned to come down for assistance? How wluld the NCAA or NBA/WNBA handle the situation if a player was injured & the player's parent(s) came rushing to their side in the middle of the court? Same thing can be asked of NFL, MLB, NASCAR, MLS, NHL, IFL, AF1, WWE, TNA, & other sports officials, no matter what the sport is. For example: what would happen if David Stockton (son of John Stockton) got injured when Gonzaga was playing against the University of Portland, & John (his father) came rushing down onto the court to be by his son's side although he wasn't summoned/given permission? |

There are exactly two people arguing for the case of calling a T because a parent comes onto the court unbeckoned to attend to their injured child. You are both power mongers. A solution looking for a problem. Hammers looking for a nail.... |

Oh and in any situation where I didn't ask you for your help and you pulled this one out of your a$$, especially this situation, my response would be a firm "Shut up or I will have you replaced".

Mostly because he states that pro wrestling is a sport and uses "sports officials". Can't give any credibility to anyone who thinks that.

Actors? Say it ain't so!! One finely conditioned athlete and one highly trained professional sports official.

I think that this is an important point, and another excellent reason for getting away from the injured player ASAP.

It depends. If it was a Jay Burson type injury, I doubt anyone would say anything. If it was an ankle roll, John isn't coming down. Mainly, though, it's not the same thing. You're talking about adults verses 14-18 year old kids. And Smitty's right, if a scorer so much as mentioned calling a T to me in this situation, I'd firmly remind him to mind his own duties and stay out of mine. Frankly, that goes for a lot of the things you think the scorer can jump in on.
