Yeah, but are you consistent with your partner?

Oh, but i agree with Oracle (or 0racle) and Yaworski (only the really oldtimers may remember this one....and they may have to think about it for awhile too!)

Alright, it appears that my recent post was taken out of context. :D
I don't reply to every single topic like some folks as I just don't have the time to follow every single topic of discussion.

There have been ocassions when JR and I have had differences of opinion and perhaps those times are what I am actually referring to. I am sure that he has been correct more often than not, I agreed, and moved on.

I guess I just remembered it incorrectly ;)

Whether block or charge, COME OUT strong and sell it!

Why is someone buying?

Is "selling" the call going to make it more correct?

If you kicked it is the coach going to be okay with it because you came out strong and sold it?

I agree with NevadaRef. One has nothing until one has something. Then stop the game. Signal the foul. Charge the foul. And then get on with the game.

I'm all for looking "strong," but I'm not so sure about "selling" it. There's a difference. Don't look like you're unsure of the call, but don't look like you're trying to convince everyone in the building, either.

Our former local board interpreter, also a former assistant chair of the IAABO education committee, also a former NCAA Division I tournament official, and now an evaluator of basketball officials for a state athletic association, in other words, an official with very good credentials, always told us that , "The best bad call is a strong bad call".
