Our BJ has made the comment that 'we don't commit the infractions, only call them.' In theory, it's nice to say "let them play," and I would say that, when watching a game as a fan, I prefer a game with fewer fouls than more fouls. That being the case, in a game I officiate, if the teams jump offsides, commit many illegal blocks, 'haul' down receivers when the ball is in the air, etc., I am going to make the call, and the last thing I think about on the field is "boy, there has been a lot of flags tonight."
