Approximately 4.0 seconds left in the last quarter, A1 brings the ball down court, as he passes half court, he travels-and my partner blows the whistle for the traveling violation---giving the ball to B1's team. At the same time he blew his whistle, my hand was up to blow the whistle to give the coach his time-out--but my partner beat me to the whistle. No doubt the coach was furious for me not granting him a time-out--but my partner signaled first. After the game the coach approached me with all kinds of insults---"You know you heard me call a time-out, You can't see, You guys need to learn how to call," etc. Well, anyways, I told him that I had no comments and explained to him that my partner beat me to the whistle. How should have I handled this situation?
