Blind Zebra, You are wrong. You see it all the time. An official might a call a foul in the last minute of the game that he/she wouldn't call in the first 31 minutes because he/she knows the losing team is trying to force free throws and thereby rebounding opportunities and to try to prevent harder fouls.
We often look for advantage/disadvantage. Maybe a foul could be called but with no advantage we let it go. As I have seen in this forum often, and is repeated many times in local and state meetings, to paraphrase, we have to combine the rules with common sense and a sense of fair play. Though I know many disagree, and perhaps that's another argument, we have to decide when and how the rules, as written, apply.
