Call it whatever (and I'm not working NCAA ball so anything their instructors might have said don't apply to me).

But just don't do what a recent partner of mine did...

I'm in "A" and the first base coach starts laying into me about a call. I calmly tell him to knock it off and the guy goes ballistic. This was at the end of a half-inning, so his players were filing past us on the way to the dugout.

So now I'm surrounded by a coach and five players and they're all jawing at me. Partner comes over and instead of "rodeo clowning" or "rodeoing" or "peeling them off me"...he get's nose to nose with ME and starts pushing ME away! Way to go, partner (or, with all the rodeoing going on, maybe that should be "pardner").

You just left the six screaming idiots, that had no business being on the field, on the field and made it look like the umpire was the aggressor. The view from under the bus sucks...
