I've had assignors/supervisors tell me they've heard similar feelings from officials and while they understand that also doesn't absolve us from taking care of things. Their response has been make the call - assuming the call in question is supported by the rules - then let them (the supervisor/assignor) know if you took any flak. That's where they step in and give the association its marching orders. We can't get the whole "one rule, one interpretation" thing dealt with if we stay quiet.

Here are my questions:
Are you counting ten seconds just as quickly on free throws as you do in the backcourt?
Are you calling a three second violation every time three seconds elapses with a player not getting both feet on the floor completely outside of the lane?
