There were a bunch of calls/no calls down the stretch of that game that went away from my team when I thought they shouldn't have, so yes, those are "brutal" for my team. Not for one second did I think "these refs are against us" or any other type of nonsense.
So if anyone is an alumnus that cheers for their school, or has a favorite team, they can't be an official!? That seems a bit over the top. My homerism for Mizzou renders me incapable of officiating a high school game?! I'm sure you can guess I'm not officiating SEC games.
I knew better than to comment on a Mizzou thread. I will refrain from such comments in the future.

No, I never use the word brutal. I try to understand the call and know how hard the job is and that none of them want to make mistakes.
I don't watch games like the typical fan / fanboi / homer. Ever.
