PLEASE STOP WITH THE FIBA RIPPING. we all understand by now that you think basketball is an american only sport (or at least the only basketball that counts is played on american soil). i didn't pay my money to read -- at least once in almost every thread -- some comment about Feeble or foreign basketball being inferior.

Enough already, we get it.

Jake - thank you. As one of the main targets of said ripping, I couldn't agree more.

Lets use this forum to educate ourselves. Surely American high school referees can learn something from FIBA refs, and I know I have learnt heaps from the experiences, and rule differences that I have read about.

So give it a rest, and concentrate on the similarities. I have no problem with pointing out the differences, but don't imply that your way is better than someone elses!

Phew....I'm done
