By this official being young it can cause second guessing too in the future when it comes to rule application due to the status of his partner(s).
So, I still stand by what I said.
It's just as wrong to kick a rule.[/quote

In my opinion, since that is what we are obviously throwing around, he stood his ground by letting the Vet official know what the ruling should be... he was still overruled. There is a time and place for every battle, he will need to choose those carefully. Nothing will be gained by two officials hashing it out on the court. Get the game started and move on. Its about the kids playing; not the officials debating.
