I've looked everywhere and I know I've read this before.

Page 13 of 2006-2007 Official's Manual:
Back Judge: When there is no field clock, time game.

Interestingly, there is no mention of R keeping the 25-sec. clock. They can't expect BJ to do both, right?

Our crew has BJ keep 25-sec clock, and LJ keeps official game clock. I wonder (If this was a change from previous years) if what we do is the old mechanic.
