If any information is going to be given, you BETTER KNOW WHAT HAPPEN! You better know the ball was tipped. You better know the ball was loose. You better know we are applying this penalty wrong. Not a guess, ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE. Same goes for any sport I have worked.

So we are in agreement on case #1 - if you aren't sure it happened it didn't happen. This mistake is directly related to the experience of the official.

How would you handle this? Official #1 rules that basketball is tipped out of bounds by white. Official #2 who had a different angle, comes in and states that he is absolutely positive that blue tipped the ball last.
