"Coach, if that's the way it happened, then I missed it. But I just didn't see that."
I actually said this to a Coach a couple of weeks ago.
Ball gets kicked around during a rebound, goes off
Home team, but enough contact that I could have called a foul, (Mr.D, and all other non-Dark Side officals cover your ears)
so I gave it to home team, in order to save visting team a foul.
Visiting team is yelling at me that I missed it.
So I wentup to him and I said, "Coach, it went off your girl" He says "No it didn't, it went of their team"
(Insert above excuse here)
To which he replied, "Ok, I've missed a few tonight myself.
Just don't miss another one." We both had a good laugh about it and parted ways.
Classy Coach, and one time that saying I missed a call worked out.
