Since no one else is going to open the can of worms....

....I'll do it.

I think we've all, at some point, leaned towards making a call for game management purposes, when we sense a whistle may calm things down, or divert negative energy for the time being. I'm not talking about making a call up, but maybe having a slightly quicker whistle on a 50/50 call, that type of thing.

It's like when the foul count is Team A = 7, Team B = 1. You're not going to start making up Team B fouls, but you're gonna make damn sure you don't MISS any Team B fouls, too.

Just my $0.02
