Coach,
Regarding your patronizing warning, we try to be prepared for every thing, every personality, every night, every game.
If you really think we aren't aware that we are judged at every whistle, then think again.
We do know we are putting it on the line every time we make a call, or no call. We don't have the luxury to say, "That's gotta be something!" We aren't allowed to guess. We have to use our eyes and not our emotion. You can stand there on the sideline second-guessing. We don't have that option.
And, do you honestly prefer two mediocre officials to one mediocre official and one solid official? Hmmmm.
