Go back and check the tape. I didn't trash Sirmons then and I'm not trashing Sirmons now. My comment above was tongue-in-cheek. I think Sirmons is a great official. He is one of my favorite guys to watch and I have stolen several of his mechanics. That doesn't prevent me from questioning (not trashing) his handling of the Calipari situation.

Saying "the way Sirmons handles business is fine cuz of how high he has work" is inherently fallacious. It's akin to the Euthyphro dilemma of "Is something right because God commanded it, or does God command it because it is right?" It's not wrong to question an official because he's worked multiple Final Fours -- not one of us is above reproach and there is something we can learn from every situation.
