This is not about morals. This is about game management. The home team screws their team they are not getting the benefit of the doubt.

I am not asking you to like it, just telling you what I will and have done. I am OK with my position on this and having experienced these situation personally that is how I handled them. And in my experience this is the way most officials I deal with handle it the same way.

Peace

It's not just the intentional stuff, either. Even if it's just incompetence....
