1. Over the back calls.

Another viewpoint......
The first 3 items may not be that egregious
if the
correct call was being made at the same time. It may be more of a mechanics problem than a judgment problem. Maybe we should really be cringing at whoever was responsible for the training of that official, rather than the official making the call.
They just might not know if no one has ever told them.
Thoughts?
Note that the appropriate and recommended training method for #4 is a slap upside the head.
