I understand why this was called, but I do not think it would have mattered to anyone if the official passed. Then again, that is easy to say with replay.

Yep he was in no kind of position, hadn't really completed his transition yet he was still closing down and made the call across the lane...well in the lane, but on the opposite side...and went directly to hands on hips...

What were they saying? That you can't have a double foul on a blarge?

No, we were commenting on the commentators on the game which basically said that the officials had to pick one (foul over the other). And the commentators made it sound like the officials could get together and make a decision and even suggested that they could look at the tape (which they cannot by rule).

Peace

Yeah, I realized you guys were talking about the commentators. I was wondering what they were saying that was making them so clueless since I didn't see the game at all. Thanks for the info.
