Jurassic, something tells me that I'm the only one that even paid attention to this part of your post. Your comments aren't popular here because many believe they must always help their (paid) partner who just so happens to be officiating on-ball. How ironic! Additionally, many officials are more concerned with making witty comments than good communication. Answer questions, not comments. Silence can't be quoted. In other words, if you don't know what to say, don't say anything.
After telling us you said, "I told the coach my partner missed..." everything else sounds like blah, blah, womp, womp.
