Working a varsity boys H.S. game the other night.....when my partner, one of those old boys network guys, calls a traveling on B1. What happened was that there was a loose ball on the floor, when B1 dove for the ball and got it, but in the process of getting the ball he slide on the floor on his belly. Know yes he did move forward after getting the ball, but it was his moumentum that made him do it, and not just doing it to avoid the defense. At the halftime break I told him that I didn't think it was a walk...he said "Well when you do your college games you can let it go, but when I am working it is a walk." Yes there is some hostility in my group about me doing college, and not being one of the boys. Tell me what you think!!!!!
