I don't see anything wrong with pointing that out and I saw it yesterday during the game when Stanford lost an 11 point lead. A lot of that was their fault as I said in my original post. Oh and the replays showed the refs made 3 bad calls in the last two minutes. One I don't blame on them because it did look like a foul but only with the on court cam that it was shown not to be a foul. The second no one was even touched. And the third happened with 3 seconds to go and it was a clean block but it was called a foul. Everyone makes mistakes but I'm just saying that the refs made calls they might not have had if UCLA was not on a roll.

You most certainly are attacking the refs...on one hand you say that they "got caught up in the excitement" and then you say that Stanford started making mistakes. If Stanford is making mistakes, then of course calls will go against them...and saying that officials "get caught up" is attacking their abilities...

Then you start saying they "missed" calls...says who? You? So your judgement is now better than that of an experienced D-1 crew? Hard to believe...
