The answer is as follows:

If you as BU are going to ask for help, then DO NOT wait for the coach to ask, simply say John did he have the bag BEFORE you make the call.

If you as BU are NOT going to ask for help, then DO NOT meaning even if coach asks you to, stick with your call.

Once you start asking for help AFTER the coach requests it, then on every other close play the coach will want you to get help and if you do it once then you will be doing it all game long.

Sorry Pete, nothing personnal but, this is getting to be like the old saying "if you masterbate to much, you will go blind."

A wifes tale, a baseball myth.

When one becomes experienced enough to handle these situations in a professional manner, then contary to the opinion of the "internet boys," it can be handled in a manner that DOES NOT, entertain further questions.

As much as officials on this forum want to convince others that there should NEVER, be a time that you don't see the pulled foot, well I got some good land to sell in Florda. It happens more time that way then, the right way. Even after we have discussed it in the pre-game.

$hit Happens and WE ALL know it does. So instead of consistently trying to teach others how to be out right ARROGANT, why don't we teach people how to deal with the real world events, when they happen. We keep telling officials that if you don't ask before you make the call, then it's too late. Horse$$it. If you can learn how to handle the situation even after you didn't ask, then good for you, your learning. And contrary to popular belief you will also be much more respected then you think.

"Coach, what's your problem, the fact that we changed the call or we got it right?"

Sorry Peter, 95% of the leagues I work appreciate the officials that take the time to get the calls correct in these situations. The other 5% wouldn't care one way or the other.

Yesterday's, arrogant official with an attitude is dying off fast. Let's get on board here.
