eye contact is crucial in these situations, these guys are highly trained professionals and i would never second guess them. this has happened to me before when there is a double whistle i automatically make eye contact fist high with no signal too see what my partners call is especially if hes closer to the play, weve all heard it look,see,wait then call. we are all officials and we have too work together out there even if it does mean eating your whistle on one. if i was the head referee we would have conferenced and the call would have been a charge it was obvious the lead had the better call and was in perfect position.
