Call Decides Harvard-Penn game

JetMetFan

Why is it a tough situation? The defender established LGP outside the restricted area before the shooter went airborne. We get paid - and in the case of D-I officials, quite a bit - to make those calls.

I have a correct call by the official who was in perfect position with a great view of the play. What's tough about it?

#1, the call didn't decide the game.

#2, it's a great call.

#3, it wasn't that difficult of a call IMO.

It is only tough if you are a fanboy.

My thinking as well but I let it ride.

His only other post was not in praise of officials either, so I'm sure you're correct.

Curious about the other post, but not THAT curious.

You'd better re-edit before "you know who" shows up.😉

Jeremy Lin would have never charged in that situation.

Amaker and the culprit seemed to realize it was the correct call, so I give credit to the players. Fans? They're stupid no matter how smart they are. 😎

One of the biggest myths is that Ivy League students are smarter than everyone. 😉

This pretty much sums it up.

Well apparently at least one is smart enough to upload video to our site.

Since this call decided the game, the officials must be happy they got it right.

Nothing real tough about this play...pretty easy charge call.

Ordinary garden variety charge.

P.S. I started my impatiens seeds under lights, and over warming mats in my basement today. Spring is right around the corner. And If we ever legalize medical marijuana here in the Land of Steady Habits, I'm ready to open up my own personal pharmacy. Does it work with old, "beat up" ankles, and knees? How about it Mark Padgett? You must know some tree hugging, pot smoking, hippies in the "Beaver State? Oregon was recently named one of the favorite states of liberals. Surprised?
