Very Rarely ....

Last week. Boys varsity game. Fourth period. Time out. I'm standing with the ball, on the sideline, opposite the table. Fan, in first row, right behind me, politely asks "Isn't #20 carrying the ball"? I answer, just as politely, "I'll keep my eye on him".

Didn't call a carry on #20, but I got a nice wave from the fan as I left the gym at the end of the game. Of course his team won.

I rarely do this, but the key is the polite tone, and the proximity of the fan.
