Gentlemen!!

Allow me to clarify, as clearly, this question has gotten out of hand-

-I, as does Rich apparently, say "Ball- no, he didn't go" on all checks. This is what I was taught at the pro school, and little by little, I have been growing away from it, but for the most part- it's what I do.

-Although the ensuing conversation did raise some interesting points, the purpose of this post was to find out if it is acceptable to check on your own- clearly mixed results.

Thanks for everyone's help!
