Face it Smitty, anything we do can turn bitter in a hurry. That's the nature of being an official.

I'm surely not advocating pass on every call. Or even to do so regularly. But I'm just as surely not advocating that we call every single thing we see. Game-flow and advantage/disavantage are integral components of our job. [/B]
We are all entitled to our opinions, but I don't think the lines fall into advantage/disadvantage. You start ignoring the lines and you will find yourself in trouble one way or another.
