Why wait? I would have called the assignor from the locker room with the bozo sitting right there listening.

If you look at the timer at the bottom of the video stop it when the ball hits the floor, 26 seconds, when the player has the ball in Her hands, 28 seconds, when She releases the ball, 31 seconds.

So in "His" understanding of the rule it was exactly 5 seconds when He blew his whistle. He just had to step in and "get" that game critical call, He appears to be the "vet" after all. Boy oh Boy isn't he a great partner.

Unfortunately if it works there the way it does around here, He is probably great friends with the assignor and the "in crowd" and the only thing He will have to do is accept a little razzing and buy a round or two when they all get to the after game meeting site. :rolleyes:

I guess we know where the term being homered comes from. Embarrasing. we have a hard enough time when we do things right. :p

Interesting answer to that question...with at least one of them I suppose.

You're right, someone owned up to being the official overruled in this video.

I'm trying to search for the thread, but I know for a fact we've discussed this video before and we had someone own up to the fact that they were the one overruled in the video.

Thinking Outside the Box (I hate cliches...)
 
Disregard post I just tried to delete on whether there was something else going on here. After listening to it with sound, I heard him verbalize "Five Seconds", though nowhere in the clip did I see any five fingers signifying it. I thought, without sound, that he might have had something else. Don't know what all the pointing downward was about.

Nowhere do I see any indication of the standard "five fingers" displayed by the alleged bad-guy lead anywhere throughout this clip. Not sure why he's pointing downward so often, unless he's fishing in the trail's pond with a mistaken spot throw in violation.
Am I off base here? Or could this be a test situation on a completely different scenerio of what we cannot see?

Could be any of that, but it isn't.

The game happened a couple of years ago. It was discussed here (not that it can't be discussed again), and it is what it seems. The general comments then were the same as they are now -- it's not the one official's call, and he called it too early (before 5).

I was in Texas at the time so it wasn't me. We know the new trail though and I think he handled it as best as he could.

Oh that's right, it was deleted, by the originator of the thread. I remember now.
