Yes, I know I was wrong. It was in close game and the excitement was high for everyone. I just couldn't wait for the game to be over and when this happened, it didn't register immediately. When I was reporting to the table, I was actually thinking "is it too late to give that technical to him for the chest bump?". I don't mean late as in I couldn't give it because I know I could've given it up next play started. What I meant by "too late" is how it would make me look if I gave him a T like 5-10 seconds after it had happened.

It was my mistake, I was just caught by surprised, it wasn't registering in my brain at the moment it happened, and I second-guessed myself. Happens to all of us.
