Momentum Swing

[secondyear]

I agree that a foul is a foul the entire game. You are correct that the statement should have been incidental contact was now being called a foul by my partner. I don't have a problem when all officials involved come together and decide that the game needs to be managed better by calling the game tighter, etc.

It is possible that more contact was occuring in my partner's area. In no way did I ever get the sense that the game was getting out of control. Even with the technical foul.

Here is a question for you, how can you justify calling the game differently in the last three minutes, then in the previous twenty five minutes?(seven minute quarters)?

I chose your first option - to call the same game that I called from the beginning.

Thank you for your advice - I always learn something from this board.
