They kinda know what they are doing.

Having said that, for me, I wouldn't have been surprised if he would have passed but I am not shocked there was a whistle either.

Bottom line - Anyone can ref on youtube with a pause button

You're right, all 3 are top-notch officials and I thoroughly enjoy watching them work. But are they above getting their calls analyzed? Should I not use their real-life instances to improve my officiating?

In my opinion, if I was in Sirmons' shoes, I would hope that I would have held my whistle.

Problem being your initial posts in this thread contain no analysis. A sarcastic reference to a "gutsy" call is not analysis. Describing a foul as "ticky-tack" with no further description is not analysis.
