Looked at the information from your association site listed above. Notice in the two-man pregame a discussion point of Oh My vs. OH MY GOD!

Could you please give a little detail on what you would discuss with your partner on that point? I am always looking for ways to grab the attention of my partner and think this could be a tool.

Thanks
Ken

Basically, the "oh my" versus "oh my God" philosophy has to do with calling in another official's primary.

Granted, we should not be looking in each other's primary very often.... but if my partner sees something in my primary area and it's "oh my," then my partner should let it go. I may have chosen to pass on it. If my partner sees an "oh my God," then I have missed a train wreck. My partner can only assume that I must have been straight-lined and needs to come in and make that call.

To be political correct, should we change it from "oh my God" to "oh my Supreme Being of your choice?"
