As for officiating, I lost any and all interest in the NFL after Seattle getting double teamed in their Super Bowl appearance.
Too much of that game relies on the referees, in my opinion. There are simply too many uncalled, impactful fouls on you average drive for me to believe there is any kind of credibility in the game at the level of the NFL.
Baseball is interesting, because the umpires have arguably more impact on the game, and plays are generally more high-leverage than in the NFL. But I've never felt like the umps deserved much more than a generalized grumbling. Maybe due to the massive difference in games per season.
