Nobody said anything about bowing down. If they weren't playing you wouldn't be out there, and whether you believe it or not those schools and organizations fork out the money for you to be there, so they are your customer.

I didn't insinuate they are above you. Just make sure you don't give them the opinion that you are above them. That was my point. You are there to officiate a game within the rules prescribed. That doesn't mean you have to go in with your nose in the air and a smarta$$ attitude.
