That is pure crap!
I don't think the challenge is going to affect us, really. But this nonsense about huddling every single damn time they are asked - on calls where if an other umpire saw something different, you'd still go with the call of the closer official... is going to bite us in the a$$. Coaches at every level are going to have hissy fits the first time we refuse to go ask our partner for help. It's gonna suck.
