If you want to do a sport where the powers that be have arrogance, try volleyball. Their pre and post game mechanics are terrible as far as talking to the coaches and players are concerned. I, and most of my fellow ignore them anyways, but still....
A lot of officials - especially the leadership - tend to forget that sportsmanship is a two way street.
