Travel - taking the easy way out....

During the past season, I sure did notice a lot of travels called by D-1 officials when a player bobbles a pass and takes steps. I noticed it less at the NBA level but still quite a bit.

Watched a bit of a WNBA game last night and saw traveling called twice when it was obvious that the player receiving the pass never had control of the ball.

Of course, it's impossible to travel without having to control. We all know we're going to take some heat from the uneducated for having the guts to do the right thing and pass on that call. It sure makes it harder when the top dogs don't have the guts to pass on it and make the right call.
