Over-ruled

Rich....you're not in the minority, I agree completely. Change the call, get the ball back in ASAP. Just do it. Argue about it later.

I also agree with MN, C in this case would have a decent look at any tip, especially if the alleged tip happened higher up towards the FT line.

Too bad about the pre-game, you'll know better next time.

Finally, relax. Step back. Is this REALLY worth getting upset about? Your partner may have been a little more demonstrative than necessary, but you're taking it way too personally. It'd be really easy to take this situation the wrong way from a P you've never worked with before.

How we deal with these situations say as much or more about how good an official we are, as any tough block-charge or pass-and-crash call we make.
