5% incorrect X 3 officials = 15%.....
is this the same level-headed, clear-thinking judgement that you demonstrate on the floor?
i can now see why you quickly dismiss feedback/comments from others....BECAUSE IT MUST HAPPEN ALL THE TIME!!!

You're really not helping yourself here.
You're just flat wrong. If each official grades out at 95%, then their combined total will still be 95%. Not 85%.
Let's assume each official makes 40 calls per game that get graded. 95% means he gets 38 of those calls correct.
That means there were 6 incorrect calls per game. That would be 15% of 40, but there were 120 calls made total, not 40. Only 5% were missed.
