(By L and C) "We owe you copious amounts of beverages for that one. Thank you for saving our a$$es." That's about as big of a non-administrative crew-save call as it gets. I can't imagine anything other than gratitude and acceptance.

That's what it should be.

Too often though, it might be "stay the hell out of my area" or "I'm the big dog and I don't need you p***ing on my tree." Followed by "yeah, well if you would make the effing call I wouldn't have to do that."

I don't know (very well) any of the personalities involved in this scenario, so I can't say what would have happened.

With the game on the line, as a crew we MUST get the obvious fouls. Everyone sees this play and know it needs a whistle. If the lead freezes, then someone needs to call a foul, ideally the center but if the trail has to come get it then so be it. We need to remember that our duties are (in the order of importance): 1. To do what is right for the game 2. To do what is right for the crew 3. To do what is right for ourselves.

You can't worry about hurting someone's feelings on an obvious play the game needs.
