To flex or not to flex.....that is the question.

I have never done it but I do know officials that when it comes to post-season they are clueless because they haven't flexed all year long. It happened to me at the sub-State final this year. One of the officials and his crew NEVER flex (his words). One time late in the second quarter, we had an 'overload' on one side of the lane. I flexed over and he didn't catch it so as we crossed half court heading the other way, there we were about 10 feet from one another. I got his attention (his eyes popped out of his head) and he went do to assume the position of new lead or should I say late lead!

On our crew, in case there is a missed flex, we say that the lead is in charge of maintaining floor balance (make sure there isn't two c's or two l's etc..) Sometimes one of us ends up running across the floor and we know it looks bad but we make sure that the floor is balanced.
