How do I call it when my back's to the court jogging to my locker room?

Agree.

Of course, our Forum friends in Massachusetts would definitely see it, since they have to stick around for the post game "love festival". After the game the officials, coaches, and players, all meet in the center circle, light a campfire, sing, "Kumbaya", and finish it off with a group hug. It's true. It's true.

It's Massachusetts. I think they learned this from the hockey officials.

I was responding to OP that said "you see this" and I was also offering up that scenario for discussion. In reality, I'm like most here...not calling it and hoping nothing becomes of it.

If I see it, I'm calling a technical. I'm just saying that I probably won't see it.

When it comes to sportsmanship - especially on the H.S. level - we can't run away from situations. As long as one of us is within the visual confines of the playing area the situation should be dealt with.

As one of the people who taught me once said, we only get in trouble when we don't follow the rule book.

The horn goes, I'm turning my back and jogging to the exit towards my locker room. If I see it I call it, but I'm not spending any time watching the players unless there's a situation already occurring.

I'm not running away from a situation, but I'm not sticking around in case a situation happens either.
