Well unfortunately I think it happens all too often. I think it goes on more than most people realize. I do beleive the official should not be ranked as high if he doesnt have the guts to make the right calls. I have learned to block what the coaches say during the game.
If anything, I tend to have more calls that go against my sideline than for my sideline. I guess it is reverse pyschology on my part. If I feel someone is trying to talk me into a call, I tend to do the opposite. I try to be fair as much as possible, but it is hard not to ignore a coach that is in my ear the entire game. However, I dont think it works in his favor in my case.
