And like I said, yes playoff games are called looser than regular season games. Regardless of who’s call it was, at some point “good will” should have creeped into Bill’s mind, that a team was getting blatantly screwed. He could’ve got together with the other officials and discussed it, until they got it right. There’s no rule against officials getting together to make a good/bad judgment call. If someone was an official on that field, at that moment, they are ALL to blame. If he’s the head official, how his crew performs, falls at his feet. I run a crew of 160 people. What they do and how they perform is on me. You think my regional manager wants to hear “yeah, that was someone else, not me”? It’s in my handbook, I am reliable for what my crew does. Same should go for those officials.
