Clock Stoppage

[TXMike]

Since I am a BJ first and a R 2d, I cut my teeth on making "intent" calls since in NCAA rules you have to rule on defensive player's intent when making pass interference calls. I don't want to say I "like" having to make that call but I do see it as a vital role for us to fill and one that allows us to be more than soul-less automatons who are just throwing flags in response to certain acts. I know I sure like having the flexibility as a R to start or stop the clock when I feel someone is illegally trying to use or conserve time. If that means I have to judge intent before doing so, well then, so be it.
