I'm sorry coach but you're seeing this play with your heart, not arbitrary eyes. We are paid to call the game by the rules. If the player fouled was an airborne shooter, which I'm guessing he was, whether the foul occurred, prior to the horn is of no consequence.

No one here is attacking you. You came here asking for comments. When we don't agree with you, you accuse of attacking you. Sorry, but I don't ubderstand, especially after reading your board for a couple of years.

If you, as an official, would ignore this foul simply because it was too close to the horn, then you're better off coaching than officiating becuase you simply don't ubderstand the responsibility. Had the shoe been on the other foot, you would have been here crying about the no-call.

Your response is dissappointing.

Good luck the remainder of the season.
