Excellent. Keep getting back on the horse. It is the only way to put yesterday's game behind you. You will have additional games where you will miss a call, get berated by a coach and fret for days -- until you get back out there and learn from that situation.

Suggestion: don't worry about your partner's calls. Work on the things that you can control. Work on your mechanics in a mirror -- corny, but it really helps. Work on consistent counts. Work on your hustle, demeanor and communication (verbal and non-verbal). Let your partners want to emulate you instead of you not wanting to be "like them." Work on your rule book knowledge so that when some "once a season" situation occurs, you know exactly what to do.
