I also think this is why you get as many 'looks funny' travels because its just easier to go ahead and call those than to explain why it wasn't.
What does this mean?

If the travel happened first I'll call it. If the travel happened after a foul I'll call the foul. I don't know what "trouble" is but I don't think you should buy into it.
