Sounds to me that this is a case of not trusting your partner.
It's usually a case of both officials trusting themselves. Both think that they got the call right. It ain't a big deal. Just go with the double foul and get the ball back into play asap. You can analyze it from here to next year, but sh*t happens--and to the best of us too.
Can't have a block and a charge on the same play. One is obviously wrong. Best way to handle is to give it to the primary. In this case it seems to be the leads call. Personally if I was one of the officials on this and my partner wanted the call that badly I'd give it to him/her and let him/her live or die with the call. [/B]
Why is there a specific case play for this then? [/B][/QUOTE]

It's to handle the situation where two Ref's use poor mechanics when a double whistle occurs and neither one wants to back off. It's a way to cover your a**.
