In which case, if the T doesn't call it, the L quite possibly could have stepped in with the call. T did, so L didn't have to. So to just assume that the L was not going to call anything and use that as the basis for your argument here is really a bit of a stretch for me...I am not disagreeing with your philosophy, just not sure that you can make the assumptions you have been making from this play.

Your exactly right. I only PRESUME that to be the reason that the L didnt make the call. The reason that I feel this way is b/c it is the L call. It is the L primary. The T official followed the ball being closely guarded practically to the low block to make sure no illegal contact was being made. It would be real hard for the T to do all that plus make sure that Augustus was in LGP and set to take the charge. I feel that the call was out of area, regardless of right or wrong. But your are right. However, you can't say without speculation that that is not why the L didnt blow the whistle. He may have chosen to pass on the call, but anyway I understand your point.
