I really don't think the refs do anything intentialy.
...and this is when I stopped reading your post.
... it's nice to know even after 8 months of not being active on this board I came back to find you're still as self-important as I remember you BrickJames. next time i'll try to write something you can agree with. If you want to take me literal go ahead, I'll ammend what I said to, "I really don't think the majority of refs do anything intentionally underhanded" ...
Thats fine, rephrased or not. I still disagree. I cannot comprehend there being any way that one could watch an NBA playoff game and claim that the majority of referees don't do anything "intentionally underhanded".
No calls - bad calls - make up calls....if you are a professional referee I don't buy the "human error" aspect. If I can see a foul or a travel on TV, I sure as hell hope one of the three corrupt bozos on the court can too.
At this stage, post-Donaghy, I don't trust a single one of them. It's outrageous that fans aren't up in arms over this WWE type of stuff.
Better?
