bjudge, you just knocked the sails out of your argument entirely. Respect or not, once you walk on the field, you should respect your partners' ability to make calls in their zones. Otherwise, you have chaos. Perhaps he doesn't respect you either ... where would it end? Get past it, and call the game TOGETHER. If you readily admit that you would not be questioning the call if you respected him more, then you are also admitting the possibility that YOU didn't see it as well as you proclaim to have seen it. In essence, you are telling us, "I am positive I was right, and he was wrong ... except that if I trusted this guy more, maybe I didn't see it that well after all." Hypocrisy, wouldn't you agree?
Rut - he DID have a good question: Why do we weight the opinion of one official threw a flag automatically heavier than that of an official who didn't. I tried to answer that, and invite your response as well.
