I had an email chat with the author last night. I came clean and told him I am an official.
He wrote the article as it was ruled on the field, but he saw a touch in real-time and the truck told him there were actually two touches without possession at halftime.
He mentioned there was a play at a game he covered last season where the punt returner signaled clearly for a fair catch and none of the crew saw it, the defense let up, and the returner went all the way for a TD. I would've loved to have seen this, but not from the perspective of wearing stripes on the field. As a WH, I would've ben put in a bad position, knowing that there's no way I see this.
