If I have a call he is going to have to do a little more to talk me off of it than a "wave off" that was shown by the Trail here. And I have as much problem with the lead going to get the ball, turning his back on the players as I do with the body language of the Trail. The ball is not going anywhere.

Peace

JRut and I are agreeing again (must be a full moon). My issue is as much with how both of them look during this nonsense as with how it was handled. The wave off, the L getting the ball, no hand up to stop the clock by the T (or the C, whatever he was), both of them leaning their bodies sideways at some point to try to get a better view as opposed to just moving their feet. Not a lot of stuff here that would go on a "how to" video.

As for the wave off, why do I get the feeling this wasn't the first time it happened during the game? I have a feeling this guy and I would've had a long, spirited talk when the game was over.

Oh, the call itself: I'm not sure of a travel when #12 first got the ball or when it was called and I'm no-calling the contact that was whistled a foul.
