If I were the one injured I would do my best to finish the game, not to pick up the check, but to help out my partner as best I could. As others here have said, I would rather work with an injured partner with limited mobility than by myself. I assume most other guys would too and that's why I would try to work injured in that situation. Nobody wants to leave another official hanging. I'm sure most of us that are of a certain age have worked games when we were less than 100 percent physically. Bad back, knee or foot problems, colds. I never want to screw another official over. I would imagine that is why your partner insisted he could work the game.
