Mark, I agree with you completely . I was simply pointing out some of the gripes we get for calling these things.

As to poor grasp of the rules; this was my rec ball 3-on-3 tournament yesterday. Just about every crazy topic we discuss on here came up:

PC under the backboard

"Over the back" for no/very slight contact on a rebound (My response - "That's not a rule. Show me the "over the back" rule in the rulebook and I'll pay you ten dollars.")

Player saves ball, steps out, comes back in, starts dribbling

Ball off B1, A1 goes OOB to try to recover, ball hits A1 and A1 comes to the ground (according to A, B1 "caused the ball to go OOB.)
