The problem is in presenting extraneous information such as the watch issue, and then throwing a hissy fit when some people (correctly) call it. For shame!

"correctly" my a$$.
I didn't throw a hissy fit, I just zinged him back. Privately.
This guy wasn't my pard or my boss. He has no place whatsoever to come up to me and initiate any conversation about my game. Period. So, when I come back at him, I am wrong?
I repeat: Bullchips.
BTW, I had seen this guy do plenty of games, and make more than a few
egregious mistakes, and had never said a word to him about his work.
Once, when I was doing a JV hoops game, one of the varsity refs for the ensuing game came into our locker room at halftime and yelled at me for a double-dribble call he didn't like.
I kicked him out the room. And wasn't nearly as nice to him as I was to the watch guy. The varsity guy complained to the board about me. And the board backed me up.
Some of you may think that as long as a spectating official is "right," that you can jump into someone else's game.
I'll never do such a thing.
