In general, I'm more critical of stupid questions on officiating discussion forums since I took up officiating.

I find myself 'cheering' less and analyzing more.
Although, I DO find that I am more appreciative of "creative hecklers" and less appreciative or aware of the typical heckler.

My fanboy persona comes out every time my alma mater plays. Can't help it.

When I see an official (in any sport) miss a call I focus on and try to analyze why he missed the call instead of the missed call itself.
