Ah - you've touched on a sore subject for me.

Coaches rate us on a 1-5 scale. 1 being superior and 5 being terrible. We get our playoff assignments from our rating the prior year. One 5 and you're dead.

Throw a DPI a coach doesn't like? 5. Sideline warning? 5. Displease him in any way - you're sunk. "You're all getting 5's!" is a coach's threat heard every so often during games. One coach left a game card up in his office from the prior week with a 5 next to each official's name. Class guy, he is. Implicit threat to the guys working his game that night.

Nobody can/will address it. We're stuck with it.
