The above post by Canuckrefguy is probably the most sensible thing said by anyone in this rapidly deteriorating thread. Thanks for bringing some sense to this. Having said that though, I would also add that on a political scale there is little we can do, in the immediate sense at least, when our elected leaders get on their high horses.
There's also no point and IMHO definately no place for politics in sport. Isn't the idea of sport to achieve the utmost in human performance? Regardless of the rules we play by, aren't we all looking to be involved in the perfect game? As a referee in Australia I can only dream of:
a) Refereeing the perfect game (in which case I will promptly retire)
b) Referee in the NBA/College where I can be a part of athletes trying to achieve THEIR perfect game.
Now that I have gotten all idealistic can we return to a more interesting topic. i.e., Davism - bring them on. Even though there are times we cannot use them at least we can think them. Wouldn't that fustrate coaches - wondering why we are smiling to ourselves.
Cheers,
