While doing some Sunday afternoon surfing on the trusty ol' satellite dish(every channel known to man),I just ran across the Euro League championship game.Got a team from Italy playing a team from Greece-live.I think it was the Bologna Boilermakers vs. the Athens Aggies,or something like that.The first thing I noticed was the 3 officials.They wear ORANGE shirts,with black side-panels trimmed in white.They also have black numbers on white patches on their backs.They really make our stripes look dull by comparison.No.Mark,they aren't wearing Roman numerals!Anyway,the officials sure stand out on the court.The play,from what I've seen so far,is very physical.The coaches,players and fans are really into it--very,very emotional.Kinda different and kinda fun to watch!Btw,the officials seem to be doing a good job.
Anybody else catch this?Fox Sports has it on one of their regional telecasts on CH.613 on Direct.
