In the first game last night, the half-time score was H40-V2.
The home team pressed throughout the first quarter 28-0 and into the 2nd quarter. Michigan was allowed by Fed to retain the 40-point mercy rule for sub-varsity games. Thank you. Final score : 58-3 In the 3rd quarter, Free-throw shooter H1 stepped over the line before the ball got iron. (Ball went in.) "Violation!" Very next trip V1 stepped over the line before the ball got iron (Ball went in.) (Score was 46-2) Practically, does the Trail see her step over the line? |

Based on the "3" in the final score, I'm going to guess this was ignored. In this blowout situation, I'd agree except that it was just called at the other end. I think you'd have to call this one, if you called it within the last few minutes against the opponents. If the call was a quarter or two ago, might be a different story. Just my perception of things.

Please. This is the equivalent of the Pats/Steelers ending. Steelers score a meaningless TD and there's one second left on the clock. But you know what? The refs decided there really wasn't one second left. Game over.
Same thing here. A meaningless FT for a JV team that's getting smoked. The ref decided that she didn't actually step over. Let's get this thing over with. To be fair, I have no real problem with calling it, especially if it's totally obvious to everybody. Then you might have to call it. But if I'm the observer at that game, I have NO problem with moving on. As always, just my two cents. Chuck

Not only don't call it - don't even see it!!! Be looking at "something else" - like Juulie suggested the table, or an "unruly fan" or something...
And is the meaning of life still 87 according to the Hitch-hiker's Guide??? |

"No basket !"
Sorry folks. I called both of 'em. Both were the front ends of a bonus, and I'm thinking "...if this counts so does the next one." Even the home team fans groaned a little, and I heard one of the "Home Moms" say, "Aw you should've given it to her." I'll tell ya, it was a lose-lose situation. mick |

Make the call. It's the only way they learn to do things correctly and learn they will be penalized if they don't.

Incidentally, I'd had him two other games that season which were all blow-outs in his favor. At the end of this third game, he told me he thought I'd done a very good job. Two weeks later when he lost, I wasn't doing quite so well!! |

I bet you didn't hear any of the "Home Moms" say, "Aw, she shouldn't have stepped over the line." Make the call. It's the only way they learn to do things correctly and learn they will be penalized if they don't. [/B][/QUOTE] I have to agree with Mr. Padgett. Although I do let somethings go when calling elementary kid's games. Kind of an advantage/disadvantage thing isn't it? |
