Lightbulb Judgement.

Even if everything happen the way you said it did, the call comes down to judgement. We can tell you all day the call was right or it was wrong, but without seeing it can be very difficult to make that determination from here. It really comes down to being in position and making the proper call and seeing the whole play and not guessing. I disagree that you partner could not have made this call if it was obvious and I believe the play was in kind of transition, he might have had the better look and made the proper call. But to make this very clear, most of us would have to see it. All the rulebook definitions is not going to matter unless you have the proper judgement to determine what took place.

Peace
