Here is the thing & I think skymike had said this earlier in the season.

For all the calles these guys make - they do a good job.

NOW - is there the potential for manipulation?? Yes - of course. BUT the league would have to wiegh the options of what would happen if it was found out.

Football is the most popular sport in the US. Baseball is dying, basketball (was) self imploding. So it would be stupid & short sighted!!

I think the league is behind the manipulation. I think they want refs manipulating games for the sake of ratings. Thats why the refs are so protected from criticism.
