Someone should send this to STERN and his Refs. Is there one about Superstar calls?  ::)

You missed the point with your non sequitor response.

Most people complain that flopping occurred when their opponent gets a call and praise calls when it goes their team's way.

The non-simplistic thinker recognizes that the effect upon the defender of an illegal action by the offensive player impacts the chances that the referee will notice the violation. This makes it difficult to differentiate between flopping and merely drawing attention to the violation by the offensive player by not fighting against the illegal contact.

but your statement sounds like your against people who disagree with flopping if to say we are very bias and only like it when the call goes our way i have to disagree with that as well.. i hate flopping periode! its very girlish and its time for the nba to man up!
