I worked with Bob earlier this month, it did not happen in our game. I have done probably 20 college games (Men's and Women's), it has never happen there. I work in a conference where I can assign the officials to my crew, never happen in my game (worked together for 3 years, only working 3 games a year). I have worked with a guy downstate, specifically in Galesburg, Illinois, I usually have done at the very least 15 games a year for about 5 years with him, never happen in our games. I have worked with many more guys than Bob (this year alone), it has not happen this year in any other games.

This is way more preventable than a blarge. At least a blarge you can get screened and not hear your partner's whistle. In an effort to sell the call you just signal without seeing or hearing your partner. Ask me how many times that has happen to me? You have nothing but time and opportunity to prevent this from happening. What is the freakin hurry to put the ball in play? You have somewhere to go? You have a hot date? You start losing your check for each second the clock is not running? What is the rush?

Peace
