And I have a blocking foul on that play...assuming there's enough contact on the play (which is hard to tell from this angle)

Im leaning to no call as well. Not sure there was even any contact there.

Like I originally posted. The call was made by the trail official farthest from the play (not sure what position you guys call that). Is there ever a point where one official steps in (like the guy right beside it) and maybe straightens the other guy out? Or is that something that you never should do?

The play in question the ball came from his position, so how far he was is not relevant. I do not like the call I saw, but not because of the positioning of the officials.

Peace

What do you mean "straighten him out"?

Distance isn't the only factor in determining who or who should not make a call.

i try to tell younger officials, especially in 3 person games, that calls should be made by "open" or "closed" looks and angles. Just because a person is close to a play doesn't mean they have the best way to process the entire play and make an accurate ruling.

Yes, there is a time when this can happen, but it's not on this play.

Just Curious
Reading the thread responses leads me to asking this question: If you think it's a flop would you consider calling the defender for a Technical Foul?

Minimal contact, looks more like a dive to me. Definate "NO CALL" IMHO
