I will always believe that the game gets easier to call from a judgment standpoint for sure. The athletes are in more control and have been playing longer and have some experience in the game. Same goes with coaches. Now the pressure can get bigger because more eyes are watching and more scrutiny on calls and other stuff we do. But I do not find that delusional, just a different perspective.
