Feeling horrible... why, that's what football officating is all about!
(Wow, I need a Prozac.)
Seriously, I've been there. Multiple times. The nice thing about doing these games is:
1) No matter how badly you screw up, somebody, somewhere, at some time, has screwed up worse.
2) No matter how badly you screw up, it won't get printed in tomorrow's newspaper, and six months from now nobody will remember.
Even if the fans or the coaches (or other officials) won't forgive you for making mistakes, you have to be able to forgive yourself. Because you will make mistakes, and you will make a lot of them. Learning from them is the important thing. If you can do that, you'll be much better off down the road.
