How bout... I screw it up on one end (it does happen) but I learn from it and if it happens on the other end I go ahead and get it right on the other end and do the game right. If the coach asks about it, I have to tell him that I got the play wrong originally but I am working very hard to get the rest of them right. That is how a pro would handle it.

And BS on the stuff not applying in NFHS b/c it does. You have to judge each play as it happens.
Disagree. I think it is best to be consistent on both ends of the floor to balance the art of fair play, which is what we are there to do. I don't think it's right for you to penalize a player on one end, and then let it go on the other end. I don't know what type of coaches you get to do your games, but if I'm coaching, I'm picking up on that right away and you and your crew is going to get an ear-full from me. In fact, that starts the BS because there is nothing you can say that's going to satisfy me here except to call the game consistently.
