While I know that table personnel is part of the officiating crew, the player also has a legitimate gripe. The table IS NOT supposed to do that.
So a player who's angry about a call you missed (and you know you kicked it, and everyone knows you kicked it), SCREAMS at you "YOU KNOW THAT WAS A FOUL - YOU HAVE TO CALL THAT - THAT'S THE FOURTH TIME TONIGHT !!" ...ignore?

Uh, WHACK.

If it happened like gostars said it did, this deserves a T.
