Try watching a game where you have no emotional ties to the outcome
Yes, I am a fan, but I am not a fanatic. I think the constructive way I'm bringing this up establishes my capabilty of rational thought, UNLIKE a fanatic. There seems to be this feeling of "necessary evil" with PAC 10 officiating, a feeling of "yeah, it sucks, but there's nothing we can do about it." And I watch as many games from other conferences as I can, because I think college basketball is one of the greatest sports in the world. The calls seem to be much more accurate, and there seem to be LESS of them, in conferences to the east. The PAC 10 is infamous for "ticky-tack" fouls, where other major conferences let the players play more, instead of dictating the speed and outcome of the game with questionable calls.
