Mark,
BIG difference between the "over the back" misconception and using "offensive" instead of "player control". One is people thinking something is a foul when it's not. The other is a concise, easy to understand, and pretty accurate description of the infraction.
Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE I know, when a PC foul happens, blows the whistle and indicates "offense!" in some way, not "player control" or "team control".
I cannot think of a scenario where a coach would misunderstand me if I told him his player commmitted an "offensive foul".
I know why you feel the way you do, but in this case, I think you're being a little officious.
