I think most of us would agree that this is not how we are supposed to officiate. Question is: what do you do? Regardless if you are a rookie, 2nd year or a veteran how do you handle this situation. I like BigJoe's suggestion to have a third party get involved. What else to do?
This past weekend I did some youth games with a partner who not only did not get up and down the court but constantly was not watching the play! Ball would go out of bounds on his sideline and no whistle. Nothing. Later he confessed that he was pre-occupied or some other lame excuse. I tried to compensate for him so that the kids would suffer too much and promptly informed the assignor not to assign me to work with him again (stating my reasons). So maybe this is a way to handle it. How else?
