1) If you're worried about bringing the house down on your head when you make
ANY call at
ANY time, then you're in the wrong avocation. Officiating isn't for you.
2) I disagree completely with your "supervisor" remark too. From personal experience I'd have to say imo that the truth is the polar opposite of your statement. Supervisors want officials that will take care of bidness if they have to, not people that make up excuses to avoid making the tough call. People like that
give supervisors headaches, and supervisors
will get rid of those headaches.
