First of all "calling a good game" is totally subjective.

Secondly, you could be graded out at 100% by an evaluator and you would still hear nasties from the fans--especially if their team loses.

Thirdly, coaches are only slightly better than fans. But you will find the higher level you work the less BS you get from coaches. (at least that is my experience). Good coaches are more concerned with coaching and winning ball games, not the officials.

And finally, be more concerned with feedback from your peers, evaluators, supervisors, and mentors than with what you hear from coaches, spectators, and players.
