You're kidding, right? Hey, I've got an idea - why don't you just "give" some points to the trailing team "to make the scoreboard look a little better and get folks off your back"?

Here's an even better idea - just flip a coin before the game to see who wins and say they won by one point in overtime, then you don't even have to play the game. I bet the scoreboard would look really good that way.

Sorry to sound so harsh, but it just burns me when officials think part of their job is:

1) to see that the fouls come out somewhat even
2) to call the game based on avoiding comments from coaches
3) to not realize that the team that plays the best is supposed to win
