I had a game at a camp this summer where I was stinking the place up. Couldn't get a call right to save my life. Had a partner offer me help on two oob calls. That day my partner saved my bacon!

This same partner is the one who introduced me to the magic word "help!" This is now my mechanic when the ball goes oob on my line, but not in my area. I hit the whistle, look to my partner and say, "help!" It works better than the old standby, the deer-in-the-headlights stare
