OK let me make the story a little more interesting. The AR is a past partner that I have worked with many times. Except for a huge case of rabbit ears towards the fans and being a little too sensitive to dissent, he's a good official. The CR who missed the flag was his son. The coaches did see it --and were screaming asking for an explanation. All three coaches yell, "Your flag was up." AR's response, "And I put it down." Sad thing - it was a very cheap goal that made a huge difference in the game. You draw your own conclusion.
