Starman,
I think one thing that I haven't seen addressed in the responses (probably because many feel it is obvious, or because I'm a ref and I just didn't see it) is the concept of advantage/disadvantage.
There is a lot of contact throughout a game that, due to the skill and strength of the players involved, does not create any advantage for the responsible party. 95.43143143% of the time, this won't be a foul. The fact that we are all human means we will all see these plays differently.
Where I see an advantage, Zman may not; where Rainmaker sees an advantage, I might not.
This is why some fans can watch a game and think the refs let too much slide and others will see the same game and think they called too much.
