If and when I make a mistake, I dont mind another official giving me good criticism and I dont have a problem eating my flag and waving it off if I am wrong. I guess the thing that rubbed me the wrong way this time around was the WM didnt seem to care or admit he could have made a mistake. If I throw my flag, I make sure I am a 100% right. I would rather make a bad call and keep my flag in my pocket, then to throw my flag and call a bad penalty.

You only have about 2 years of varsity experience. That is not very long compared to many here. All I am saying you will make a call that your partners will not agree with. It does they are right.
It was just one block in the back call. If that was the only call you or anyone does not agree with, that sounds like he had a good game. You are coming here and making it sound like the game was lost because of this one call. If you work long enough at this, you will have many more calls you are not going to agree with. We are not perfect. You might need to see it on tape and see if the foul was different. As a WH, I would not care what your opinion was. Trust your partner.
Peace
