I respectfully disagree. Your integrity is in more question, when you make calls just to be on the same page with your partner. Just because action happens on one end does not mean that the other action is the same. I have to make calls regardless of what my partner does. I always tell my partners in a pregame, "call what you see." That is all I can say or anyone can expect.

Peace
