That partner is pretty solid. Not the best official every, but certainly competent. He could have handled a conversation with a coach about why he did not make the call. I took that chance away from him.

The problem was me straying out of my coverage area. I was wrong. The game would have been better of without me putting air in my whistle in that situation.

When you talked to him after the game what did he say that he saw? Was the foul marginal or was it a foul you thought you saw? I have worked games when I am the lead and there is a drive from the wing and there is contact right in front of me on the backside and I can't see a thing because the play blows up on you and the Trail comes in with a great help call. The play was three feet in front of me and an officials from 20 feet with a better look comes in and gets the call.
