I would not say all bets are off. If I have a block and I contact the ball first, why would I want to call something simply because there is contact? The objective of the game is to play ball and if a defender accomplishes that, I think philosophy wise it is not a good idea to call fouls. Contact is a part of the game and would most plays that allow contact on a block as long as the contact with the ball was first.

Peace
