Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I thought the entire concept behind the phrase "Bang-Bang" means that the call could go EITHER WAY, and be correct. Once you understand and ACCEPT that football plays are like snowflakes, many are similar but no two have ever been exactly alike, seeing calls differently takes on a whole new perspective and should make it easier for you to "move on" and enjoy the rest of the game.
You seeing a catch as complete and someone else seeing it as incomplete doesen't guarantee either of you is absolutely correct, you've just reached different conclusions based on all the many variables involved. The ONLY conclusion that really matters is that of the official making the call, whose only technical assistance available at that moment is his natural eyesight, which can be enhanced, or degraded, by his positioning, possible obstacles, unintended distractions, etc.
If you see the call differently, that's OK, but it's not going to change anything and for all practical purposes, doesn't really matter, except perhaps tp you.
