Do we have to do this again? Ugh. I'm not taking the bait ... are you guys?

To answer the OP:
1. Heck yes, without hesitation (TY or LY)
2. If I'm POSITIVE of what I saw, and also sure that PU couldn't have seen the kick, then yes. Any umpire can call OBS or INT - this is not poaching a call. Now ... if PU saw it and didn't call it, I'm assuming my PU saw something I didn't (and definitely discussing it later).
