I know for a fact that I've put my arms up like I'm trying to get out of the way and it has never burned me before...but I'm learning from this and keeping my hands down for sure.

I think w/ 4 of them out there, they could've called it foul and stuck with what he called and they would've been okay.
Oh there were definite issues with him putting his hands up and we may never no exactly why but, maybe , just maybe he stuck with what he had because in his mind that was the right call. Maybe by now he also sees how bad it looked but, at that time though, with all his experience, and in his mind, the right decision was made and that is why he stuck with it.

I am given him the benefit of the doubt here because of the professional he is. I also realize that he just may have screwed the pooch and didn't want to come clean but .............. I find it hard to believe he got where he is being that devious all the time.
