Check the ego at the door

Pregame, I ask my partner to help in watching for traveling in the blocks, because I'm usually up high with my eyes watching ball, hands, body contact, and if the guy doesn't have an ego to bruise, he'll say "Do the same for me". Best way to ref a game... Check your ego at the gymnasium door, I'm there to make sure the game is played by the rules, not to make a prettyboy official feel good about himself.
I agree with the concensus on ballhawkers; watch offball as much as possible, but if you see it, and it isn't called, do the right thing.
