If you believe a coach when he says you did a good job, you have to believe him when he says you sucked.

This is my point exactly in Illinois where coaches ratings are part of what is used to evaluate an official for promotion. It is the most ridicioulous thing I have experienced as an official. Gotta deal with it though if I want to advance...
