The conversation would go something along the lines of "How can you send us this guy. He hasn't got a clue. He is not ready for this level etc. etc".

The call was missed, but one thing to remember is that anyone of us missed this call inone of our games there is very little that could be done to get us to agree that we missed it. No video proof. So our assignor might get a call, but without proof like this video most good assignors would protect the umpire.

Like I said, he missed it, but I don't think we can equate missing a call like this to our games because of the simple fact that in our games we do the best we can and some times miss them and miss them big, but no one can prove it.
