[QUOTE="Battle89, post: 1975043, member: 748721"] I get the 'enough is enough' with fans whining about refs. But the above is a false equivalence. Those posters can climb on the rooftops with a bullhorn and complain and it will not affect the gameplay. A player exhibiting that behavior will absolutely influence future calls, at the least at the subconscious level of the ref. And repeated behavior of the same will build a reputation. Those outbursts need to be contained to legitimate bad calls, and should mostly come from the coach anyway. Then you might get a makeup call later if the ref knows he made a mistake. Coleman at this point of his career will probably never get one of those. Edit to +1 [USER=748262]@Frank[/USER] for the lesson in brevity! ;) [/QUOTE]
