So....how do you pre-game that? Do you say ALL close plays should be a block? Or do you say ALL close plays should be a charge?
Sarcasm aside, btaylor is exactly right, IMHO. How do you pre-game it? Exactly how he said it. If you completely screw the pooch and call a PC on an obvious block, I'm not going to intentionally screw the pooch on the next one just to make up for your bad call.

But when you judge that first bang-bang too-close-to-call crash a block, then if I have bang-bang too-close-to-call crash, it's gonna be a block. If it's NOT close, and clearly a PC, then I'm going to call it a PC. But I'm going to try to remember that the really close one that could have gone either way was a block.
