I wasn't trying to imply that Stalling is a hard call to make! I've called FB and BB and I've never had a tough time throwin the flag of PI or calling a foul, but I did have to study the rules, study the game and work on getting into position as well as trying to put myself in the position of the athlete and interpret their reasoning of the action (in this case, misaction)

Stalling is easy to spot and SHOULD be called more. Fleeing the mat is the same way. [Which, Jim Ramirez taught me that you decide who's avoiding wrestling/fleeing if there is space or not between the wrestlers. If there's space = bottom/front guys pulls the other out. If there's none = top/back guys pushing the other out...]

Refs that don't want to get the coach's feathers ruffled are the ones that make it hard on the refs that don't care and call it as they see it. If more refs would do the job they're hired to do and not worry about the politics or if they'll lose a post-season vote, I don't think the discussion of inconsistency would be there.

"Call what you see. See what you call!" Great advise I got from a real veteran when I first put on the stripes/target...
