Disconcerting the shooter/Fed

[Bart Tyson]

Obviously your partner was not and is not a partner. Its OK for your partner to talk for decussion purposes because it is a good topic, but when he starts pointing fingers then he will pay in the long run. I also don't think its OK for officials to say, anyone who would not call this a violation is an idiot. Different officials have different opinions of what is a clear violation when it comes to disconcerting. Raising and lowering of the arms question, was it a rapid motion or was it slow motion or somewhere in between? This is where the judgement comes in. I would have to see the play to call this a violation. From what you say, it certainly did not look good. Fortunately, I have always been able to give a warning because it was border line. Bottom line you made the call and we are a team. For this reason i would back you 100%. I think you should get the tape and review it. I have made calls in a game and later reviewed the tape and it did not seem to be as bad as i thought when i made the call.
