At the quarter, I asked him about it. After giving me his best Homer Simpson look for a moment, he admitted he blew it.

I would like to add my two cents on this. This is exactly how I would have handled this situation. Even though your partner later admitted to kicking the call, you didn't come charging from the baseline and make a scene. I've worked with too many prima donnas who think that they are bigger than the game and their partners. Besides even though the lead saw this it's not his "area" to call. Something to be learned in this forum every day.
