That's different however, from turnign to go back to position after the call and *before* the discussion. Too many umpire, imo, make a call, then stand around to admire it and /or (worse) look to teh coach for affirmation. That just invites a discussion. Make the call and hustle to your next position.

Exactly my point. 100%.
