Rocky gave two examples of games where a team got blown out one week and blew a team out the next. Sometimes in sports, teams just get blown out and it has nothing to do with the officiating. To just look at a team pressing or whatever doesn't really give a clear picture of sportsmanship.
How about this?
How about applying that same awareness to the pursuit of the perfectly officiated game? I think that energy could be better spent someplace else. Sometimes teams are just that much better than the other team.
