Either way, a travel is a horrible decision here.
I'm amazed at how many people use a travel to avoid making a tough block/charge decision. Like I've said to others, film don't lie. It may look like a travel if you completely ignore the contact, but that doesn't make the call any less wrong.

Truth is that some of these plays are close to 50/50 calls and the official on the spot, given good training, will just go with an initial instinct, and those of us sitting at home will pick the call apart.
