I used to be one of those officials who really resented coaches who "ran up the score". Doing all the little things that have been discussed here never did any good, it just made life hell for me and my partner. Call the game, call the obvious, let the clock run, and get the hell out.

Having said that, if a team is running up the score AND being a bunch of jerks, we are fully within our authority to deal with it.

(insert "whack" sound here)
