Ya know what?
F@ck Skip Bayless.
When did it become fashionable and even required that sports commentators and writers be viewed as experts at basketball officiating? Or officating in any sport. Even last night's game, did we really need Packer continually screaming into the mike that the officials were NOT CALLING illegal screens during the final 2 minutes of a great game? What's he really saying? "Guess what NCAA, your officials are f@cking another one up for us." But Packer isn't the only one or even the worst one. How is it that all these guys - who wouldn't otherwise know which end of the whistle to stick into their mouth - have become expert on what is and isn't illegal contact during a basketball game?
I know they have dead air & column inches to fill, let them stick to pretending to understand game strategies, making predictions about draft choices and asking Barry Bonds where he gets his steroids from. At least then they have a chance to be right every once in a while.
