Oh yeah, we take calls to the table round here

I could've swore I followed the rules by putting a fist up, my partner went right to the punch mechanic & well, that was that!!

Are you suggesting that I chase him down to complicate the situation? "Hey I had a block, you showed p/c already, but I'm calling a block as well!"
I dont think so...
You showed a foul signal. You NEVER went to your parner though to make sure that your foul call was the same as his foul call. Au contraire, you freely admit that you thought that your partner screwed-up the call, yet you sat back and did absolutely nothing about it.

You let him report a foul that you thought was wrong. A foul that you also blew your whistle on, signalled a foul and had the opposite call. And you admitted all that too.

If you think that's the right way to handle those situations, well carry on carrying on, Ch!town.

Yellowball forum member and skeptic on this topic, but I thought I had repeatedly read that this is generally what everyone hear preaches. Can someone clarify for me:

I thought the "correct" way was: Both officials come up with a foul but neither divulges their call. They look at each other and one decides to take the call.
A blarge occurs when both officials blow that responsibility by immediately signaling what they have.

If one official blows it and the other doesn't, then it doesn't seem much different from them looking at each other and yielding to the one who didn't blow it.

But I surely misunderstand and can be set straigh.

I read his post to say he blew the whistle but didn't signal the foul yet. If not, he handled it right, even if he was planning to signal the opposite.
