No firestorm, from me. But read what he posted. "There was a little bit of contact, and I was about to call a common foul when A2 then "bear hugs" B1." In these situations, we know a team is going to foul. At the first sign of contact, the foul should be called. By not calling the first foul, we allow things like a bear hug, a jersey pull, or a shove from behind to occur. I can only base my opinion on what Mark stated and that was that he saw a common foul, but then blew the intentional foul. Without regards to the stupid comment his partner made, that's the wrong call.
