I thought it was an easy block, but my partner told me the dribbler had an outstretched limb, which made the initial contact. In this case, we opted not to go with the double foul, and my partner reported the PC foul. (It made for an interesting moment, as the kids starting to line up at the lane while we were discussing.)

Simply put, talk about it first. If you still insist that you're call is right, and your partner sees it differently, the only choice is a double foul. However, it helps to communicate first.
That's not a blarge. That's a double whistle.

Yeah, sorry about that. You're ability to withhold the prelims saved you from having to go DF.

Exactly. Double whistle, no prelims, easy to settle. Not a blarge.
