Comments... how do I calm my frustrations. We feel we call a pretty good game and we continuously hear the nasties...

I never hear the fans. I know they're yelling but I really don't hear them.
Coaches - I have been told that I take too much grief by my assignors and V refs. It wasn't bothering me, but they said if you don't get them under control, sooner or later a close call will go the screaming banshee's way and the relatively calm coach is going to think that the opposition got the call because of that coach's behavior. So, nip it in the bud early, particularly if it's public, profane, personal or prolonged.
