Freddy, Freddy, Freddy...

Interestingly, none of you mentioned the idea of calling a foul on B1. That was the first response from one of the officials in my FB group and a few others agreed.

By what rule?

The only thing you could call on B1 would be a technical foul, but that might be a career stunter.

I didn't say they made sense

A few people thought it would be a blocking foul because B1 didn't maintain LGP. One considered calling it a block by applying the Elastic Clause. One mentioned a T but with the caveat that B1 would've had to kick off the sneaker on purpose, which would be pretty hard to prove.

The official who started the page, who is also an interpreter, put that talk to bed. He said if a coach asked why he didn't call a foul his response would be, "Coach, I cannot call a foul on a shoe."
