Yep, and they also want you to call an intentional in the last minutes of a ball game when they foul to stop the clock as well as assess a technical foul when a coach is coaching outside the coacing box. I'm willing to bet that most do neither (unless the coach is a problem). Again, my point is this strategy puts a "crimp" on the official because of the cat and mouse aspect of the thinking . . . one is trying to miss and one is trying to force him to make it. I'm gonna let em keep going and see what happens.
