The truth is that if you read through this and other threads you'll see where we can be critical of our brothers. Recent threads about Ed Hochuli and Don Cherry come to mind.

Fans are very rarely interested in reality in discussions like this. They are more interested in pissing and moaning.
They ask questions, but then when their questions get answered the person answering is either FOS or "covering up for the refs." That's just the way it is.
I spend a lot of time on a couple of college fan forums and it's really pretty comical. I used to try to explain rulings etc., but you know it's bad when you can provide a quote directly from the rule book and still be informed that you are wrong.
I have learned to let Matthew 7:6 be my guide.
