Agreed on coaching. Not completely on officiating. I think the refs make the right call or the right no call about 98% of the time. The other 2% - I say it's fair to criticize. They're professionals. Get a thick skin. There's no need to call a ref blind or stupid or ignorant. Or to swear at them. And there's no reason to say anything about officiating except for the moment it happens. Yelling at an official after a game should get the yeller arrested for assault. I call a bad call a bad call, and I shush up the other fans when they think a good call is a bad call. Sorry to the allsports zebrastripers on the forum, but I think that more than a handful of officials need a verbal reminder immediately after wrongly tossing the hanky that the defender has an equal right to the ball that's in the air. And when I see #68 on the offensive line tackling our defender again and again, I'm going to yell that #68 is holding. Immediately after the play. And only if #68 just did. I'm not going to yell it all game. Yelling stuff like "you have to call that both ways" is stupid and pointless. And yelling crap like "What? No penalties?" in a sarcastic fashion is immature. I assume that most refs tune out all the noise coming from the bleachers. But if my observation alerts a coach to look for and point out the same thing, I'm going to do it to support my team - not to attack any ref.
