C'mon Chris...

1) a completed pass into the endzone the receiver is attacking, and
therefore a score. Just ignore which team threw the pass!
(some American college kids came up with this one, so go ask them...)

2) Anyone can through the disc into the ground - there's a lot of it
around. It takes a special skill to throw the disc to a defender in your
own endzone!

3) I note your comment is from the throwers perspective.  Try it from
the point of view of the defender making the catch... (and I'm not
thinking of the Batchelor school-of-D !!!)

I thought it sounded like fun, too, but Roger never quite got around to
making it a one-off Winter League rule  :(
