That's misrepresenting what he said. The scenarios described (intentional walk, fouling to stop the clock, spiking a football) are all analogous to what Mr. Natchez was saying. IF this rule was going to be enforced this way, a smart way to play is to load up all the balls in autonomous, take the 10 point hit, and beat the pants off everyone.
What really happened was this: he knew that the rule wasn't being enforced quite right, posted it to the message board here, and ensured that the head ref in DC (and everywhere else) got it cleared up by the start of the next day.
