I'm not sure how well that would be perceived by those involved. Since there were several of us in on the discussion. Not only the two veterans with the "right answer" the rookie with the correct answer, but the other crewmembers were at least overhearing the conversation.
I dont want this to turn from a rules point to a public flogging in front of the local group.
Since nothing was ever flagged nobody could call the R on it while the game was on. I was working chains so I couldnt get onto the field to question it even if there were a pause where I the crew got together.
Thing is I like these guys. R and U, and dont want them to get called out on the carpet by a supervisor who sees it, live or on tape. I'm of the feeling if something goes wrong we all bear the burden. Not only on your crew but overall, we do try to help each other improve. It shouldn't all rest on the supervisors.
Several things they drill into us new guys.
1)See the ball
2)Work as a team, the guys in stripes are your ONLY friends out there.
3)See the ball
4)We are all responsible for getting the right enforcement.
5)See the ball
6)Don't look for things to call.
7) and please make sure you see the ball.
To me this fits into 2 and 4.
