Talking

I own a chihuahua. A chihuahua is a dog for lazy people. You don't have to walk it. You just hold it out the window and squeeze.

Sorry to break the awesome string of jokes, but...

...from recent NCAA bulletin, under "Points of Emphasis":

Palming

While more illegal dribble violations (palming) have been called this season than in the past, there are still too many violations not being called. Officials must become more consistent in calling these violations when they occur.

I love the Steven Wright quotes, but I got no call. The ball did not stop any longer than during a hesitation dribble and the hand never touched the bottom of the ball, nor was if facing skyward, so I got nothing.

You make the call!

What I like about it is he made a great move (legal or not) then proceeded to throw the ball directly out of bounds!

Of course we have the luxury of seeing this play over and over...and in slow motion if we choose.

Could be palming by rule...obviously close.

Having said that...would you as an official rather miss this call by blowing the whistle?
Or would you as an official rather miss this call with a "no-call"?

Ball coming across the division line...
D-1 game...I'm going to error on the side of a no-call.
Agree will all RookieDude's comments!
