A dumb commentator comment. So what else is new? This happened in the first five minutes of the game. I wonder how many more he'll chalk up before the end of the contest?

Yeah those stupid commentators..., a little while later I heard one of the commentators say that a time out had been called by one of the teams, when clearly it was a "TV time out." OMG what a total freakin idiot! How could he possibly make such a mundane mistake? The games would be soooooooo much more interesting to view if former referee's were providing the commentary. These former coach guys just run there mouths, blah, blah, blah, far too much to say.

I know that referee's would do well because of all the facinating referee pod casts in itunes, not to mention the shelf after shelf of interesting books written by officials at Barnes & Noble.

Well... there actually is that one written by Donahey(sp) about CHEATING!
