Now I have to go to the station and see if they have tape of the game. . . If it really was a 3, I'm gonna be pissed. Shot was taken from the Lead's corner (I was trail). Partner put up an arm after it went in, but never gave a touchdown signal, so I didn't give the signal either. I'm standing right next to the Brattleboro coach, who immediately says "Was it a 3? It was a 3!" After the time expired (less than a second), partner tells me he didn't get a good look at it. I told him I thought he stepped across the line, but I obviously didn't have a great look. So we gave 2. I'm gonna be ripped if we missed it.

You think so?
Yeah I do.

I thought my response was actually pretty reserved. I didn't respond to him at all.
You stopped to ask him to repeat it, didn't you? Instead of heading off the floor.

But I'm not going to accept that kind of crap, regardless of the age of the kid or the game situation. Especially since he was stupid enough to say it to me twice.
The way I read it he was stupid enough to say it to you once.

Then he was :sarcasm on: polite enough :sarcasm off: to answer your question honestly.
