Some people are truly obsessed about traveling. Shrug.

I am obsessed with anything that is this easy to see that goes uncalled, for whatever reason, this often.

I have actually answered your question. But I think like a guy that goes to a strip club or the casino all the time, people like yourself are often obsessed over this issue.

Travels are missed every single game, by either having them called improperly or if we do not call them. We have isolated a few plays and you act like there is an epidemic. I did not see the entire game to even know what is or is a trend. And why I told you that I saw some calls on the NCAA video that showed travels. I wonder do you really watch basketball because I see travels called all the time. But like other a lot of plays we can go back and see if we know for sure if they were correct. It is like block-charge calls. If they were missed, they were missed, it is not a tragedy like you are making it to be.

Peace

You miss a lot of things. But what else is new?

I gave you an answer originally. You choose to focus on something that is not the case. As usual you are obsessed over traveling and then act like you are so perfect at calling them, but everyone is "ignoring" them. They are missed like many things in life, get over it already.

Peace

This topic comes up every season...we discuss...agree, disagree...whatever. I'm in the camp that calls it when I see it but I'm often on an island. It's gotten to the point that I bring it up in pre-game and when I'm the crew chief (R), I'll tell my partners "I'm calling it when I see it". Sometimes they follow suit...other times...not so much. My wish is that the Fed would spend less time focusing on crap like leg sleeves and headband colors and come out with a definitive policy on the move. Legalize it or make it a POE like hand checking this year. Until that happens, I don't see anything changing at the HS level. Some guys call it, others ignore it. Inconsistency...and that just makes us all look bad.
