I've always hated hearing this. It's just not true. If no one remembers us being there at all, it probably means we were not doing our jobs. No game is ever run so cleanly that we are not visible in some aspect. I hate when officials say this, it often means their goal is to fly under the radar and not affect the game... but the result means they DID affect the game by not making calls they should have.

Seen and not heard is a cop-out for doing your job.
