SEC football refs are really bad, but here are 3 sports with even worse officiating.

3. College basketball. I can't tell what is supposed to be a foul in this game. My guess: what's called a foul is determined by who the home team is.

2. Pro boxing. It's gotten so bad that I just turn the tv off, if it comes to a decision. The judges get it wrong more often than they get it right.

1. World Cup Soccer. It's amazing to me how an official can mess up this simple game. But when the final score is often 1-0, a single blunder can make the difference between winning and losing.

NBA is bad but college basketball in the NCAA tournament can get really bad, also powerhouses in one bid leagues(like Butler or Gonzaga) get favorable calls every single game to where its unwatchable and you pull against them by principle alone

I have trouble watching NBA games because the officiating is just that bad. They also seem to think people pay money to come see them and not the players.

judging =/= officiating?

the refs in boxing do a good job, the judges sucks

College hoops is easily the worst. The tony greenes and ted valentines that think they are more important than the players and the game itself.

Honorable mention...nba(crawford)...sec football...english soccer

NBA - the one sport home court advantage is so obvious because of officials. Free throw statistics drastically change for the home team. Star players foul like crazy but their teammates get the foul or there is a no call.

Professional Wrestling. I once saw a wrestler hit his opponent upside the head with a metal folding chair. The referee did nothing.

NBA, only because I stopped watching basketball after Stern cheated us in the 2007 WCSF.
