Sports of all kinds have two things in common: they draw in the crowds and they all have some kind of officiating crew. These guys do work hard and make sure the game keeps rolling, but I think sometimes they just want to be on TV.
I watch a lot of NCAA college football and I've noticed that in the smaller games and less promoted match-ups, the referees hardly ever assess penalties, but in the championship games they are all up in the TV screen calling fouls on every player who looks at them wrong. I think they are just lonely for attention and in my opinion they need stay the hell out of the way and let the players play.
Do you think refs are just trying to steal the spotlight?
(or is it just me...)
