Now, you being a Teddy V. groupie(  ), how does that statement strike you? Do you agree that ol' Teddy doesn't have the nuts to make a tough call? That's patently ridiculous, isn't it? Note---you can insert any D1 official's name above in place of Teddy V. That's because according to socalreff, ALL D1 Mens officials working in the tournament lack courage. Well, that's just wrong coming from someone who purports to be an official. |
Talk about being misquoted... I never said none of those officials had courage, because I know some of them personally. All I said was that I hadn't seen it. It's not like I'm watching every play of every game. I apologize for the misconception.I should have specified that based on some of the calls and no-calls I've seen, it seems the officials didn't make some tough calls that could have been made, ie: the Oden play, the Cain play. Most of my post had to do with officials calling all over the place. It just makes one wonder if plays are getting officiated within their own primaries if they're offficiating someone else's. If you watch Burr's 1st round game, 50% of his calls were in front of a partner.
