Well, I was totally joking, but I do see a serious point behind this joshing. I think having the attitude that everyone's out to get you makes it more difficult to have a good game. Even when they ARE out to get you (which I'm not sure they always are), usually there are ways to cut through the antagonistic stuff and have a more collaborative front. Especially coaches and players need to learn to see refs as being less enemies and more as neutral or objective. That attitude will grow more when you can have it, too. I'm not saying your feelings of paranoia are wrong, just that it's better for you to try to fight them.

I understand your point, don't get me wrong most of the coaches know me well and have a very professional relationship on and off the court. Although there are some coaches that just have that wall no matter what.
