Ogie, try to put it perspective and not take it personal. Nobody likes to be verbally attacked and yelled at, and its a normal reaction to then get emotional during your response. But understand that the problem lies with them, they eject themselves by words and actions- you are just there to manage the game.
Considering that we have (what I call) "ultimate power"- you can stay calmer when realizing that the final outcome is totally controlled by you. Knowing that, I'm (usually) more amused by the stupid actions some players have, and nip it ASAP.
The word gets out, teams recognise you, and the games are played with less griping.
Oh, and hustle your butt off, anticipate where plays may happen, and those close calls wont be complained about as much....
