Does anyone know if the officiating personnel (this includes referees, line judge, back judge, etc.) are evaluated periodically. I know that umpires in baseball are, and low evaluations for them literally means going back to the minors or losing their jobs! Considering the way many of the games were called this year (and not just 'Skins games- I've heard about horrible officiating for other teams as well) I'm wondering if these guys have any incentive to perform?
