While I don't like the idea of calling a phantom foul here, I'm not going to tell an official to go against the accepted practice in his area; no matter how stoopid I think that practice may be.
Is it the accepted practice in your area?

I don't think I've heard of any area recommending that their officials call a block instead of a "T" for flopping. The usual practice seems to be "warn & whack" afaik, especially after the POE's that have come out.

But then again, I've led a sheltered life....

Negative, and I could be wrong about whether it's the accepted practice anywhere. it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong on this board. Won't be the last, either, given how quickly I tend to open my mouth.
