OK, now we must agree because someone wrote it in an article. I know I have called IHC and no one ever said anything to me about calling it when I threw the flag. As I have said before, when I have called it, I took more grief for the call rather than a pat on the back. So what part of this little statement applies to my experiences? And when I was a WH, I remember multiple times this was called and my crew came to me. I do not recall that coaches were calling for this to be called and then there was a flag. Even penalties like encroachment and holding is called all the time without a coach saying anything. As a matter of fact I remember a coach going nuts in a semi-final playoff game when the first holding call was made in the second half against his team. So this little comment does not hold any water outside of a personal opinion. It does not prove anything is or is not called. It does not make him an expert on what everyone has been calling. It is an opinion. Not that I completely disagree with the opinion, but it is not an across the board application.
But then again, BJ you have officiated before. So you are intimately aware of the process that an official goes through to make calls. After all, you have sat on the sidelines for several years as a coach. I guess I can fly a plane because I have been on many flights in my lifetime too (yeah right).
