Capping a Team Legal?

I searched around and didn't find this on a thread this year, so I am bringing this question to the 2005 game. Most people saw the instance where a team capped another last year with the big Yellow ball when the other team had alot of purple balls in their ball catching mechanism. I was wondering if it was legal to cap another team. Say a team had multiple tetras and was going towards a goal, and instead of waiting for them to put the many tetras on the goal, you just put your color on top of them. This may be a good strategy because it would put your tetra on top, some teams have a max they can carry or cap and putting an extra one on top may go over this limit. I don't know if its worth it all the time, but it might be a worthwhile strategy. If anyone has an answer that would be great. Thanks
Nate
