Canuck,
Your post noted a foul discrepancy. Some may, but I don't base my foul calls on which team has more. In fact, if the coach doesn't say anything to me, I'm not likely to notice until midway through the 2nd and 4th quarters.
I think "game-management" calls (such as ignoring the non-pressure OOB line violation on the team down by 25 with 3 minutes to go) are ok. i had one of these last year in a small school varsity game. It's actually closer to a 50 point blowout, and the kid stepped over by about two feet waiting for his teammate to look for the pass. I hear the players on the bench yelling for a call, and then their coach telling them to shut up, "He saw it." Coach completely understood why I didn't call it.
But it's a completely different animal than "make-up" calls, and I'm trying to keep the two from getting mixed up in this discussion.
