Foul in the last second

My last game had a 20-point margin. I had a clear foul in the last second.

After the game, my partner and I were about to hit the showers. In came a 70-something member of our board, who gave me a hard time about the last call. (I had a reply for him that referenced a recently departed official, but that's another story.)

Yes, the game's outcome was clear. But when you decide you're going to stop calling fouls for that reason, aren't you making yourself more important than the kids, particularly a kid getting hacked and entitled to a trip to the line?
