I'm of two minds on #30 vs. A1. I can see calling the initial contact near the division line if I'm the T on that play and in the heat of the moment. A lot would depend on what we'd been calling up to that point. However looking at the replay I can also see passing on that situation.
But...there had to be a call on the block/charge. Even, as the T, if you're not sure who the foul is on at the moment you blow the whistle just blow the whistle. I'm not saying make something up. Blow the whistle, don't give a preliminary and take a beat to process what happened. We all work hard out there and if I'm an observer I can forgive not putting a whistle on the contact at the beginning or end of that sequence but to have nothing on the train wreck in the middle shouldn't have been an option.
