To me, the main issue here is that Rut basically overturned a partner's call. Where do you draw the line? If he calls a foul that you think involved zero contact, are you going to go to him and say that you think he should change it to an inadvertant whistle?
Like I said earlier, it worked out OK. But I think it sets a dangerous precedent when we start going to a partner and talking them out of a call (with the one exception of an obvious tip that you know they didn't see because they were looking offball).
I'm all for getting it right, but I don't go tell my partner that I think he got a call wrong. JMO.
I guess the other thing that caught my eye was that you said the coaches were complaining all night. Why would you allow that?
