Like it has been said, halftime is not a good time for this. It really isn't fair (fair) to you when you are given advice at the half.
Unless the other person is hearless and enjoys running others down, it is tough to give advice. I wouldn't want to come off as someone who knows it all; it isn't like someone just starts doing a good job, everyone has been where you are.
I like to be honest and straight with someone so I think the best approach is to deliver the message like I care about the official and the game. If I know someone cares about me and aren't just dogging me out, I don't mind if they cuss me out (I know everyone doesn't like that). As long as they are delivering the message for my good, it isn't totally about the delivery, moreso the message.
YMMV
