football bicep bands

[sloth]

I can honestly say that as a crew chief and referee, I will NOT be calling an USC on a player wearing arm bands. This is real simple. When you see it, tell the kid thats considered to be illegal equipment and they'll need to remove it. If they balk, tell the coach and this will fix the situation.

Here in Indiana, the coaches vote on post season assignments. Throwing an USC on something as trivial as this is a pretty good way to make sure you are sitting at home fro the first round of the play-offs.

Are there other rules the coaches ding you on when you enforce them?

I'm sure there are. The coaches vote has no feedback to the governing body aside from the vote itself. Common sense lends itself to the idea that you should focus on penalties that relate to the fairness of the contest and safety rather than nit-picking over the presence of an underarmore bicept band or a "live strong" yellow wrist band.

Great... the p*ssing contests have found their way to this board too. I guess I will have to stop checking this one now like the NFHS board.

Why waste the time reading all the childish banter?
