What's the call???

Here's a fun one for the new year.

A1 has ball in frontcourt outside 3 point line. A1 shoots and while still airborne, B1 intentionally pushes him in the back. The shot hits the back of the bracket and bounces straight up. As it comes down, A2 and B2 touch it at the same time in the cylinder. The ball doesn't go in. After A1 returns to the floor, he punches B1. Meanwhile, A2 and B2 have pushed each other in the chest.

Coach A comes off the bench and gets in your face and yells profanities. Coach B then screams that A2 isn't even listed on the roster and is not in the scorebook. Meanwhile, your partner notices that A3 is wearing an illegal uniform and B3 has an obscene tattoo. The scorer then informs you that the teams have been going the wrong way since the beginning of the quarter and besides, A1 actually got his 5th foul two minutes ago, but he forgot to tell anyone. Coach B yells for a timeout, you grant it and then realize he was out of timeouts.

And just to top things off, your partner yells at you for calling in his area.

What's the call??? Have fun and happy new year.

If you can't explain it "DON'T CALL IT"!
I would also be asking "why me God, why me!

Gee whiz Mark, you must have a lot of time on your hands.

And by the way, it is obvious this is the WWF!!

Give all involved a 5 minute misconduct.

Easy, off-setting penalties and re-play the down.

That very thing happened to me last night---we went with the AP arrow.

The only call I make is to my assignor, quitting.

Ok, after seriously looking at the post again, here is my answer: Let the partner make the call if it was really his area. So there.

If all this happens, you lost control of the
game a long time ago, have a great night.

After further review, no defensive penalty and the game is over NOW!!!!!
