When I look at video, I'm looking at the play and determining what I would call, and where I would put myself in the best position to make that call.

Making excuses for my own bad call, or another official's bad call, doesn't help in the learning process.

My thinking, this official went into the locker room and immediately told his crew, "damn I kicked f'ing block call", or watches the video and says "damn, WTF was I thinking on that play".
