Study time

My wife long ago gave up with asking, "Who's playing?" when I'm watching a ballgame. She knows I'm studying the officials:
What did he/she call, from where?
What was the game situation?
How did he/she communicate - with the players, partners, table crew, coaches (when needed)?
What did they not call? (with the same qualifiers as on the calls they made)
College games, for me, are most instructive, with understanding of the different rules sets fro HS.
