There would be no travesty either way....it was a close call. One second either way. End of the match, quick action, either way it ends up being a heart-breaker for one or the other. I think in 100 matches this goes 50-50 and in most cases its not a state tournament match.

We'll never know if the official actually made a two count...for those who aren't officials, it boils down to this...the swing of the arm is not what decides points, that's just a signal for the crowd....I've seem points awarded with no swing, and I've seen guys swing the arm 10 times for a three point NF.

To go all goofy over this call is expecting a level of perfection that you aren't going to find in mere mortals.

I'm reminded of a baseball officiating story in the big leagues. At a close play, the umpire calls "safe" while giving the "out" signal. The runner looks up and says "which is it" and the umpire says "10,000 fans just saw that signal, just you and I hear it the other way, you're out."
