When to overrule

[shagpal]

how can you "get together" when your partner was not a willing participatant? did you insist on helping "get together" when help was NOT requested by your partner?

First time, I went to him on a possible pulled foot. He told me there was a hot mom in the stands and refused to say anything else. The second, he came to me and told me he didn't want any information because in HIS game on HIS field HE wasn't going to change any calls made. Kicker was, he missed a very clear tag, but never really told me what the coach asked.

I don't need a partner on the field that is not going to be a partner on the field.
