I use the 50/50 "chance" as an arguement for officials.
Basically, when someone says that the officials won/lost a game for them, or just generally stink - I counter that on each call, half the fans approve and half disapprove.
If half are right, then the refs must have a 50% good call rate. A coach with .500 is doing pretty good for him/herself. A player hitting 50% of field goals is pretty good, too. When the players and coaches can all pull 50%, then the officials shold raise their standards.
Okay, odd arguement, but you get the point (I hope).
