Really? Where did I advocate that? I'd love for you to point it out.

Couldn't find it, eh?

What I did say is that I don’t have time to decide WHY my partner didn’t make the call.

Would you rather I stop play, go over to my partner and ask “Hey, Joe. I noticed you didn’t call that blatant travel that was in your primary. Was that because you passed on it or because you were screened out?”

No, I have to make a judgment call. (hmm....Joe missed that blatant travel call. Maybe he was screened out)....NEWS FLASH: WELCOME TO OFFICIATING 101. It's all about judgment calls.

You need to learn a great deal about "partner awareness." Part of that is well described by this poster.
Gee, thanks. I've been told by multiple partners and evaluators that I'm a great partner and have great "awareness" on the court. But bully for you for being able to ascertain my officiating abilities from an internet message board.
