Naw, your calls are nonsense. You don't know or understand basic rules concepts. That's why it is such an easy call for you in your rec league games to call this play a block. The reason that the players also might not have a problem with your calls in your rec league games is that they don't know any better either. It's rec league, not organized basketball. Fortunately, real, live, honest-to-goodness basketball officials do know the difference, and none of them would ever agree with you.

For all of you non-Old Schools reading, Bob Jenkins laid out the basics of what to look for in his post #3. NFHS rules 4-23-2 and 4-23-4(a) tell you how to call the play. That's why the correct call is a charge. NCAA rules are the same.

I realize that we're not going to get Old School's account pulled. So how about if I'm deputized as a moderator only for purposes of deleting his posts? Plus, I'll delete the porn spam from the General Forum (after forwarding any pictures to Jurassic, of course).

Maddening, ain't it?

Who else can turn any rules discussion into a trainwreck quicker than our beloved JMO of McGriffs fame, the king of the trolls?

Careful, you only get one bullet.

If you forward them to me as well, I'll consider voting you into the clique.

Methinks that it'll have to be a silver bullet. A regular bullet just ain't gonna work on this clown.
