I walked away knowing we were doing it wrong but at least I tried to correct it. There is nothing unprofessional about having a discussion on the field.

To simply not approach the WH no matter why "type" of guy has is is completely unacceptable!

I agree 100%. I always get upset when guys on my crew come up at halftime that they thought we screwed something up. Why are you waiting until now? Tell me when it happens so we can fix it.

As officials, our main job is to get the call right.

As a crew, our main job is to get the call right on the field, not in the locker room.

Most of the problem, I believe, is being in too big a hurry, especially during a blowout. Learned that from this past Friday night with a different situation. Just need to slow down sometimes.

Thanks for your comment and debate.
