It actually has been tried in recent years. Petitions, meetings, the whole nine yards. We just gotta face it that coaches don't want to risk losing this power to disallow an official to officiate any of their games.
But, maybe once I get a few more years under my wings and get better known in the local officiating community, I might give it a shot myself.
