So I took the time it takes to bring my whistle up to my mouth and called the violation myself. U1 says I was so fast he didn't have time to call it, but again, I had my whistle down for the jump and I had to reach down, find my whistle, bring it up to my mouth....

Would you guys pass on that or make that call?
This seems to be one of those situations, especially in 2-man where U has to watch 8 other guys, that R should definitely have the ability to intervene. Even if it's going to be a bit delayed. Get the call right -- right?
