I find that response hilarious. Didn't you invent the use of that word in the forum?

How does one have LGP when his foot is in the crotch of an offensive player?

Good question if it were actually in his crotch. IBut, it was no where near his crotch. That foot was on the other side of the player and it didn't touch him...at least not in any way that had any bearing on what happened.

A1 went down because he stepped into B1's foot that was in the exact same spot at is was before B1 started falling backwards. In fact, I think A1's stumble actually had little to do with B1...it was coincidental.

I think this is a perfect example of a play that breaks the two whistles down must have a foul philosophy.

I think each player went to the floor more due to their own actions (flopping/embellishment and clumsiness) than the actions of their opponent. I don't think either player disadvantaged the other one.

Yeah, I see that now. But looking closer I see B1's left foot is on top of A1's left foot, thus when A1 goes to move/pick up his left foot he can't and it throws him off-balance.

I think this is the best so far. Looks to me like the shooter also embellishes trying to draw a call as well.

How bout this though? Would any one passion the defender flop and then after the shooter gets tripped up come in with the PC very late?
