seem like in every sport these days the refs are a step behind the player and make bad calls after bad calls
No way, the NHL is the worst by far. They call penalties based on who's winning, how close the game is, who had the last call or if it's regulation or overtime. It's bull shit. How can you have a penalty and a dive on the same play? Bull shit.They do a pretty good Job in the NHL and MLB. NFL and NBA are awful though.

As a whole, refs do a good job, but any error or even just a close call is so magnified nowadays with instant reaction from social media and news outlets hopping on the social media buzz.
It's no worse now than it was 20 years ago with strike zones. Umps have always had their "own" zone. NFL's rule changes hasn't helped as it adds to more borderline calls with some rules being more ambiguous. But again, as a whole they get it right. If there's call at the end of the game we can question, that just manufactures more content for talk shows for days after that we all participate in.
