I agree. You hear this in every sport that refs are the worst they have ever been but I think reffing has become harder than ever. In every sport, athletes have gotten faster and the rules have changed to encourage quicker play in basketball, hockey, soccer, etc. Rules have also gotten more convoluted and grey making it harder to make quick, easy decisions. Refs are asked to do an extremely difficult job where they are set up to fail.
