You mean what my partner said, as in "whaddya got?," I presume.

This was a Varsity game 3 years ago with a veteran partner who knows the right questions to ask on an appeal, but chose to be lazy and put the call on my shoulders. And this guy was in "A position" when he asked. No excuse. I had no idea what he wanted as far as information from me. He could have chosen "Did he tag him?" or "Did he pull his foot?" or any specific question.

My assignor (who has more experience umpiring than you, me, and Garth put together) told me he would have told him that he had "heartburn" if asked "whaddya got?"
