If players don't like our judgement, then they shouldn't do things that force us you use it. Players know it's illegal to push off. It doesn't matter how minor you think it is, that player knew for a fact that their was a .0004% chance or whatever the number was that was decided in this thread that a flag will be thrown. In a Super Bowl of all games I don't think I'd want to take a chance at pushing off, and if I did, I dang sure aren't going to do it in the end zone within 4 ft. of an official. I don't keep foul counts. Some teams more disciplined than others and better coached, so arriving at the point that things weren't consistent based upon the foul count is bogus. Sometimes a team doesn't foul but yet the other team is 10 fouls ahead of the other. Does that mean I'm not being consistent? I'm using the same judgment and holding each team to the same criteria. I'm sure not going to make up a bogus call just to make the foul count even.
