If I make 3 80% balk calls over the course of a week, I have a pretty low chance of getting them all right.

Baseball, most of are calls, there has to be a call (ball/strike, safe/out, fair/foul). Things like balks, OBS, INT, we make either a call or a no call, very similar to basketball. Basketball guys will tell you, only call what you know you have. Its not a trust issue, its an understanding of yourself and the limitations that surround you on the field.

Dissent within balk philosophy isn't anything new, I don't suspect we'll clean it up in this thread.
