Dang... don't get me started.
Members of the SC Legislature have decided to introduce a bill
requiring instant replay during playoffs in High School League Football and Basketball.
Why? Because in last week's AAAA Boy's Basketball Championship game, a player (whose team was one point down at the time) slung a basketball from beside the lane on the other end of the court. It went around the rim once before falling in. From watching (and listening to the video), the ball has just left the player's hands when the final horn sounds. However, the three officials quickly conferenced, one of them signalled no good (too late) and nearly ran off the court [can't say that I blame them.]
Now don't get me wrong; this team got shafted. But the overraction from the legislators is a wonder to behold. Except it isn't. It's just par for the course these days.
