TXMike,
I'm simply saying in closely contested games, players and coaches know they can gain an advantage if they can get a favorable call from the official.
OMG !

The players and coaches will work you for that call at every opportunity they get.
OMG !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
As an official, we need to be mindful of that and take careful consideration to not destroy a team on a questionable call.
I'm going to assume you're French with you're liberal use of the word "We"
Otherwise....Please dont include me in you're "We".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
A questionable call in the 1st quarter does not have the same effect on the outcome of a game as a questionable call in sudden death overtime.
So ? Do you think you're there to have an effect on the outcome?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
If I have to make that call, I can assure you I will be standing clearly on the side of the right call instead of straddling the fence. The call would be undisputably clear so that my judgement is not questioned.
Want to bet ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
