If you are suggesting that an official that makes a rules mistake is going to be whipped over and over again (which might be fun for some) you would be wrong. Depending on who is involved, I guess people will deal with it in their own way. Some might go as far as ban them, but most will likely have a conversation or ask the official why they made a call. They might even show them the rule where they can find the situation. I would not crucify the guy. It was a mistake and if he officiates long enough he will make more mistakes. I know I have had my share. I learn from them and you move on.

One of the reasons you got no feedback, because most "real officials" want nothing to do with those games. Those games you experienced are for many (lack of a better term) is a money grab. This is not where official tends to go that are very serious about working HS or college ball.
