In one game, the players and the play stunk. And naturally, there is nowayinhell that the officials are gonna look good. Nuh-huh....ain't gonna happen. In the second game, the players are skilled and well coached, and that makes your job just soooooo much easier.
Tanner had the right idea. Carry visions of post-game sugarplums and brownpop in your head and just git-r-done.

This, to me, is a good reason why I get irritated when people complain about "let them play" or the concept of game flow. The players, and their actions, determine the game flow. If they have a crappy game, they will have little flow, because of their play, not the officials.
