AUU is worse because some teams have 6-7 players and others having 10-12 they just cant play that style and survive.
I have never been an AAU game where anyone was over seeing any of the officiating going on. I have been at many college/HS events where was over site. much easier to be a baseball ump with 5-6 plays a game that require some thought as opposed to basketball that has multiple events on one trip down court.

Don't read too much into it. That guy that BNR is talking about is mainly there as a buffer, someone to let people vent. 99% of what he's told gets put into the round file.
The complaints you had would have been filed that way, IMO.
The only people I'll listen to about my officiating would never be making comments during the game like that.
