Almost agree. Except some of the really old grizzled veterans. We've got a forty plus year veteran on our local board who wouldn't know a basketball mechanic from a football mechanic. But we all want to be his partner, because he can officiate the sh** out of a game.

Had a BV game where it seemed all the home players were 6 inches taller than any of the visiting players. Naturally, white got 80%+ of the rebounds, and red was crying all night for ... guess what ... over the back. I had to bite my tongue several times from telling the coach that tall is not a foul... :)

Yes it is.

I had a player fumble a ball he was receiving while taking a couple of steps in transition last night. When the coach said something about a travel, I gave a fumble signal and the complaining stopped. Bad Rich. Bad, bad Rich.

so if boris karloff is the over the back signal, who's the fumble signal? this guy?

C'mon mbyron. This is the twenty-first century. Get with it. The correct terms are Caucasian, and Native American.

Great point, There is NO SUCH call as "over the back". Alzheimer's or not, ANYONE should know this.

Any any official worth their salt would know what over the back is too. At least the kind of play you asked a question about for sure. ;)

Peace
