But I strongly feel that refs can be swayed at the end of the game. They may not realize they are doing it and they might think they are being objective but the pressures from a close game, the coaches and fans may cause them to make calls they would not normally make. all right really last post. time to move on to uncontroversial topics like gun control and abortion.
Is that what your extensive officiating experience tells you?

You think displacement is a violation and that only a player with the ball can hook an opponent. Yet, you're an expert who can evaluate D-I officials.

Now maybe you can tell us, WTF is up with that?
