    I wonder what constitutes a "play". For example, pass-pass-pass-3 pointer: Is that 4 plays? There were 4 opportunities for foul calls. I guess what I'm wondering is if 17% wrong calls come up to 20 blown calls a game or 60 blown calls a game.

    I believe they get what they deserve for the most part, but Hell was over booked
