IF they weren’t real fans, could they do what they do, night after night?

I think I knew that, they are mostly good guys and just like the guy next door, same thoughts same dislikes. The thing I dislike about refs, is the make up calls, they just can’t seem to forget about the last call made. Many times if you look at the box score you will find that the fouls called are just about even for both teams. I guess its a thinking that they want a favorable review from the coachs. In last nights game the last two fouls should never have been called.

Yes they know the teams and players better then the average fan and what thier tendencies are. Most of them call a good game and then there are the few that gives them all a black eye with their famos bad calls or no calls. But you never stopped to think of them being human and being fans of different sports. We just think of them being the whistle blowing Refs that just won or lost the game for our teams. I Refed one basketball game for a Church leauge one time and I will never do that again!!!
