I felt we needed some levity around here this morning.
He does go out of his way to not be a homer. Has to be hard.
REad the posts about the game. Will that not suffice?
He seems to be getting increasingly frustrated. He seems pretty level headed but would not surprise me to see him force the referees hands at some point. Nothing like taking two guys holding on to you and sailing them out of bounds to force a review showing the refs shortcomings.
I don’t think his dad is a good commentator, so I guess that is where he got it.
Ah sorry. Guess we only are bad for conference. Or maybe could we just get different refs for the whole conference games for the whole league??
He made a Tweet on X about the flagrant fouls being called, saying they were BS. My guess is he got a hand slapped and was doing his best to walk it back last night and get out of the doghouse.
It was a joke! 60 years ago I would go to the baseline at Hinkle where nets were hanging to keep the balls from getting up in the bleachers to hear the grunts, thuds and shoes squeak with inside play right in front of me. For the most part the whole flagrant foul is a joke. They now have a rulebook that is very exact about what subjectively happened where the players, coaches and some fans know whether there was an intent to hurt someone or not. More bad rules hurt the game. Along with that quit rewarding the offense when the defense makes a good play off a pass and kicks the ball by rewarding the offense with 20 second if less were on the clock. Lastly, hand the ball to the visitors to start the game. It isn't like refs can toss the ball up anymore.
