Let's turn this around guys. This game was obviously officated. What responsibility do we take as game officials? Where do we draw the line. If you are properly prepared as an official, you know the rules as well as the commish. You also know when they are being broken.
We are the administrators of the game, not the commish. So what do you do when you have an out-of-control commish in one of these win-win leagues?

Touchy. Tick him off and you lose games/money. Say nothing and risk getting a kid hurt and open yourself up to liability.

How much do you try and protect these kids from the competivive adults? A kid is crying on the field because the coach has been yelling at him....what do you do? Tell the coach to knock it off? eject him? make him send the kid off the field? mind you own business?

I have a rule and I tell both coaches before every game. If a kid is crying (for whatever reason) he leaves the field.
