Thumbs up Sell the Call

You have to call what you see. If an evaluator is downgrading you for making the correct call when unpopular, relative to future assignments, then I'd be asking for direct advice as to exactly what calls and rules he wants made contrary to fact, and what the supporting directive is, so that when one of these obvious departures is eventually questioned, you can provide the justification.

On the close call with the unexpected outcome, I often add after "SAFE" something like "Pulled the foot" or "Hand beat tag" that explains what I saw. Doesn't mean the disadvantaged coach agrees, but at least he knows what I perceived, and I don't seem to get many questions once they know the basis for the call.
