This was a tough call, and this seems like the time when the crew needed to call the Blarge as other crews have done recently.

I Call Fouls:

This was NOT a "blarge" and could never (apologies to the late J. Dallas Shirely) be a "blarge". Do NOT even think about a "blarge" because by definiton it is IMPOSSIBLE for a "blarge" to occur.
