A wheelchair probably isn't getting out of the way, but at least it's relatively stationary allowing a player to somewhat judge how to avoid it. A hopping coach carrying/dragging/dropping a crutch seems different. The dropped/dragged crutch is a hazzard for a player trying to make a play. I would think the safety of the player would take precedence at some point, especially if the crutch is being used by someone who twisted an ankle and doesn't have a perminent disability.

It doesn't say that they are allowed to wear clothes in the coach's box... yet we let them...
