one more angle
The whole problem here is whether the terms "call" and "signal" are meant to be interchangeable in this case.
A1 drives on B1, who is planted and waiting. I am positive that A1 is going to run him over, but at the last possible split second he crosses over and changes direction. B1 is fooled, just as I was, and attempts to recover but sticks his chest out and turns an almost certain PC foul into an obvious blocking foul. I see all this in my mind as I blow the whistle, but my hand didn't get the memo, and it grabs the back of my head. oops As I report the blocking foul, coach B says, "Hey, you signaled PC!" "Yep, I anticipated. My bad."
Same situation as above, but my partner also had the call and made the correct signal from the start.
Is a signal, which I knew was wrong by the time I made it, binding in either of the above cases? I don't see how it can be.
