[QUOTE="whovous, post: 1353437, member: 67129"] A different question about the reversed foul call: Refs spent several minutes looking at the replay. Presumably, they wanted to know if Alstork took an elbow to the face and if so should they impose a Flagrant-1. They decided no contact was made and reversed the call. Here is what I don't get: Why does it matter if contact was made? The guy swung both elbows at Alstork's face. Isn't that a foul all by its lonesome regardless of whether Alstork moved quickly enough to get out of his way? The assumption seems to be that it is OK to take a swing or two at an opposing player, so long as you miss. Isn't that wrong? [/QUOTE]
