Call on the court = Block. Your opinion?

He was upset that I did not think that both plays that were posted were not seen the exact same and rule both were blocks that JetMetFan posted on the same day. I said one play was a block and the other was a charge. He claimed they were exactly the same and I should have ruled both blocks. He even suggested that the defenders did the exact same thing at the time of contact.

I was attempting to back you up...he did just spend his entire time attacking you for whatever reason...not deserved for sure and incredibly wrong....and spent little to no time on the point.

He did say, somewhere, that you were wrong on both calls (you said one was a block and one was a charge) and he also posted a ruling where he said both were blocks. So, if you were wrong on the one in this thread, he was too, since you had the same ruling.

His statement here is where he contradicts himself...

Yes, these are your opinions on both calls, but in both plays the defense is moving into the path of the shooter. In both cases you got it wrong, especially if you subscribe to the teachings of the NCAA, which you claim you do.

BTW, you were wrong on the other once since I had the opposite ruling.

I am so confused anyway because I really never got why it mattered in this thread what I thought about in another play in the first place. I just wanted to clarify that he thought the two plays were exactly the same which was pointed out to him. I was not taking your post as a slam, just wanted to clarify how silly his point was when he was ripping me about another play that was similar, but not the same. And if I was wrong, he really did not seem to notice that many others disagreed with him on how those plays should be ruled. It was all kind of silly and why I called him a troll. If you are trying to have a constructive discussion about these plays there was/is a case to be made on both sides. But he was obviously worried about what I thought more than anyone else.
