I have two officials scratched. Both have a history of "getting their partners in trouble" by just being screw-ups. I have tried to work with them both and they always get both coaches irrate...usually before the end of the first quarter. They call EVERYTHING regardless of where it happens, they never hustle, are almost always out of position (at least they are when I locate them after hearing their whistle), are lousy at letting their partner know what they have and have all the tact and grace of a 2,000 bull in a china closet with an ice floor.
It is much easier to avoid them than try to work on game management skills.
I have never scratched a coach or school.
