Welcome to the world of officiating. This happens all the time and you do not even know it. Not so much the scratching part, but having to deal with an issue based on what someone "overheard" or claim they "overheard." This is why you have to watch what you say. You never know who is around and just keep working. You can only control the things you do, not what other people claim you do. I understand the anger, but this is how many things in officiating come about.
