Juulie - sometimes what you may perceive as a mistake really is not. Remember last week when we called four offensive fouls on that post player? He kept putting his arm around the defender to hold him back when the defender would try to get around to front him?
After the game, I heard his coach complaining to a parent who came late that we called those fouls and he couldn't understand why his guy "never" had an offensive foul called on him before, and then he gets four in one game. Let's assume his behavior in other games was the same (I can't imagine he never held before) and it "never" got called. Whose mistake is that - ours or the refs he had in those games?
Actually, it's probably his coach trying to rationalize why they lost.
