Just curious as to whether there is data regarding the number of fouls called on home teams vs fouls called on visiting teams; both on the national level and also in the Valley.

Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:
"We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".
A physician called into a radio show and said:
"That's the definition of a stool sample."

Here is a link to an interesting study from a couple of years back which looked at score, home-away, and number of fouls per team plus maybe a couple of other variables: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/01/sp...refs.html?_r=0
A highlight from the article:
It found that referees called fouls on visiting teams at a probability of 7 percent higher than on home teams; that there was a 69 percent chance the visitors would be whistled for the next foul if the home team had five or more fouls than the visiting team; and that when the home team led, its chances of being whistled for the next foul were about 6.3 percent higher than when it trailed.Shocker Nation, NYC
