Officials, players, and coaches (let's also throw parents in the mix) are all to blame for this, I'm just not sure how to proportionately spread out the blame.
Even if they are telling the truth, it still doesn't fly because I can't officiate my game based on what somebody else did wrong in another game.

My response is often "I didn't work that game".
