One thing that gets me is that Goldin tried to play the refs at the end of the first half when Fitzmorris hit him across the shoulders. Goldin immediately put his hands to his face, trying to make it look like a flagrant foul, pretending to have been hit there, though the replay clearly showed the contact was lower.
On the contact to the groin, he seemed to me to go into a full Pacino relative to the degree of impact. He sold it completely. You would think, after the bad acting earlier, that the refs would have questioned the effect of the contact. I was watching without sound: when the ejection foul stopped play, I was sure it was for the moving screen. When the banner flashed replay, I thought it was Goldin under scrutiny. Oh, well.
