Gee just because your a ref you should just sit and watch the game silently. please. What about other sports? what about March Madness. I know I'll be yelling at the tv and having a good time. I had a lot of fun being a fan and critiquing the refs as well who I already said did just fine. The game is a lot more fun when you are actually trying to be involved in it.

Being a fan doesn't give you carte blanche to yell at the officials good nature or not. No one said you had to be silent, but cheering for your team doesn't have to include yelling at the game officials. I've actually found sports to be more enjoying now that I don't focus on what or wasn't called and focus on the game.
As far as other sports, I do not yell at the game officials of any sport. I do not know the rules and mechanics as well as they do and to act like I do and yell at the officials like I do, wouldn't make me any better than the common fanboy.
I also wonder, what kind of response did you expect to receive? You, being an official, told a group of other officials that you had a fun time yelling at other officials during a game.
