It's tough but I think Jeff put it best in post #22 of the thread:
if we pass on plays like that, bad things could happen
Basically, call the "elephants" in the room. The ones you need to get to preserve order or to keep coaches and/or players from losing control.
We're not all in agreement as to what should have been called on play #1 but if there's nothing called what will we hear? "How the xxxx can three of you miss something like that!!!" Given it happened in the first half - of a game that went to OT, btw - you're going to hear it all night AND from both benches...and you would've brought it on yourselves as a crew. You would also have heard a whole lot of complaining one way or another on play #2 if there's a no call on play #1 and rightfully so because they happened within a few minutes of one another.
There's no way the offensive player embellished because she was contacted while airborne. If you think the defender flopped to try to embellish the call, fine. Call her for a block and that problem is solved. If you think she was legal, call the PC since no player likes taking a knee to the chest. A no call opens up a huge can of worms.
