NBA vs. NCAA officials
w_sohl...
...the "star treatment" exists in every sport... baseball players known for their "exceptional knowledge of the strike zone" get the benefit of the doubt at the plate from umps; great receivers often get away with a little extra push to "gain separation" from a defensive back, etc.......to me, at least, that stuff is no big deal...
Advantage/Disadvantage - As I absorb the posts, that topic is one to really remember and deserves much attention while viewing a game. Just thinking of a game from the perspective of advantage/disadvantage is an eye-opener... the booing crowd, the screaming coach, the grimacing player mean so much less when viewed from that perspective...
