I'm going to go ahead and sit on my hands here at my desk and not move until any supervisor or assignor (with any credibility) says that an OB violation should simply be ignored in that, or any situation. I'll see you all in the morning. I'll just be here, sitting on my hands - because that will never happen.

If there are officials who don't agree with how this call was made, it's fine, in theory, (despite they're making everyone else's jobs harder) because those officials aren't ever going to work at that level (what JRut said about the video updates on ESO is dead-on - and you could probably find at least one from about every year in the archives on both the men's and women's side that addresses these types of plays, and how they want them called fouls) - or if they do, and blow this call, they'll be done working at that level (or at least in that conference).

Poor defense. Good call. Rant off.
