I have an intense dislike for the phrases: "pass on the call" or "it was a no call."

An official has to make hundreds of yes/no decisions every game. Did an infraction of the rules occur? Yes or no. If the answer is yes, the official stops the came and imposes the appropriate penality. If the answer is no, the official does nothing.
