well it happened, well almost happened

After all the Blarge talk last week, how many of us had one this weekend???... I'm T in a two whistle game. Girl dribbles from my primary, about 2 feet outside the block there is a collision. On the whistle I go, hand in the air, as it is heading to the back of my head for the PC, I notice it appears that my partner is in an old west shootout, you know reaching for the sixguns, which would be on his hips....I hesitate slightly, he looks in my direction at the same time, I should point out that I didn't hear his whistle, when he looks his arms go limp and to his sides, then he points for me to take the call...which was nice because by now my palm is firmly glued to the back of my head....I go to report and hear A's coach setting up what he thinks will be his inbounds play....When he hears the number and color of the jersey, lets just say he didn't agree....Told me it was right in front of my partner...Which it was by that time because he had started to move over (3 man sneaking in here)..I explained that it was my call came from my area stayed in my area....at this time P comes over and says "coach, that was my fault, it was his area, his call....it looks bad, but it is my fault"...coach got over it and on we went.... A couple things came out of the discussion afterward, number one going 3 man most of the year then having to do 2 man sucks LOL....We didn't pregame that scenario quite enough, because as a group we try to release to the lead even though that isn't what the book says, we as a group feel more comfortable with the look the lead has, and to be sure, he probably had a better look than me. The coach also added, the play was coming right to him....that lastly, when that happens, you can stand united in that it was their/my call, their/my area, but it is hard to then add the sell, it was in his primary and it was the right call, because just 3 seconds ago, you didn't think it was the right call LOL.....
