No doubt there are bad refs many are usually seen early on, those seen later maybe criminal.  I have no reason to doubt what you say But:

It isn't easy to get Refs to do the travel, take the personal insults, and be away from home more night/days than desired.  Start firing for perceived injustices and soon you have nothing except really bad refs.\

To determine that a ref "anticipated" the call or didn't is not a certainty or just a judgement call, most calls made by a ref are based on judgement and experience and yes some anticipation.  How does the brain make split second judgements that fans expect 100 percent correctness in those judgement?  Experience, expectation (anticipation), and knowledge (which usually comes from experience).  The brain is excellent but all coaches don't have the same arrangement of cells or numbers.  Humans are a fallible species, perfection isn't in them--but ability to strive for perfection is.
