Im quite sure what the book says to do at every level of play. The word "shall" means do it, the word "may" means we have options.

I thought Mr. Adams wanted the game to be called as the rules were written?
How could an assignor say anything different? If rule support doesnt back up that decision in an assignors eyes, perhaps that is not the right league for me. Guess I'll worry about it when/if it comes up in the real world.

My $.02:
College players know how to foul in end of game situations. If they don't, they'll get this call every time.

I have never taken any grief for making this call. In my experience, you get far more grief for close-to-the-line calls you pass on than for the ones you get.

Haven't worked one of those in a while; I don't remember.

Note that he says he has not "taken" any grief for making this call. That's a very different matter than them not trying to "give" him grief. Of course, in men's wreck ball they try to give you grief for every call. And no call. It's almost like giving grief is actually the game, and the basketball part is just something to do between whines.
