I think I just heard Juulie scratching you from her Christmas card list for being one of "those guys"

My P gave an interesting captain's meeting yesterday. After dismissing the coaches he turns to the players (girls JV game) and says, "Just one thing, sportsmanship. Ladies don't cuss, right? (they all nod) And we're not throwing the ball down tonight, right? (they all nod) Great! I haven't called a T in four years and I don't want to ruin my record tonight." The game went very smoothly.

What is the rule number for this topic? (Running out of bounds to avoid a screen)

In fact, making a move towards the basket is one of those allowances, correct? I think what they were perhaps trying to get across is the fact that many new officials seem to over-call this violation, when it's better to see the whole play.

I concur.

I totally disagree with your V partners advice. If a player has camped out in the lane, ignored my infamous, "Don't stand in the lane", and now has a pass coming to him/her then he/she has just gained a huge advantage. I usually try to hold the whistle until I'm convinced the player jsu won't hear me telling them to move or when the pass is headed their way.
