I call intramural basketball right now, and I call high school football and baseball in season. I can honestly tell you, I've never come close to having as much trouble in any high school game in any sport from anyone as I have in intramurals. If you are a student and an intramural ref, the players will give you crap to no end. And a lot of the intramural officials we have truly are horrible officials that have no clue what they're doing. So even if your mechanics and rules knowledge is top-notch, your partner might not have a clue and you're running a one-man game out there.
