Michigan St./Duke announcing

donj

My answer to Billy Packer is DIRECTV. Have the Mega March Madness package and watching the NC State/Wisconsin game. Rather watch Mich State/Duke, but Packer isn't allowed in my house. What an "IDIOT."

I'm sitting here at my apartment in Austin wishing I was there. (To watch, not officiate.)

But yeah, I'd rather hear Jay Bilas and his crazy babble than Packer and Nance.

Just sat down to supper when the game started. She asked me why the sound was muted. I told her, "Packer" and she said, "Nuff said". I luv that woman to death, even though she won't watch much with me😃

13:49 remaining in the 2nd half.

MSU running, fast break.

An absolutely horrible traveling call.

Player bobble the ball, no had control, C calls traveling. 🙁

Dookies. Going down! 🙂

How about the great foul call that was just made and the babbling idiots were talking about how bad it was because it was "all ball" and "his arms were straight up". The freakin body contact was so hard and the defender undercut the shooter. These guys need to STFU.

Also, what was the reason for the video review on the OOB??? The morons were talking about a foul vs OOB vs touch. I couldn't figure out the video review though....

The calling official clearly signaled a push and they are analyzing replays to see if the player got hit on the arm. AAAAAAAAH!! This has happened several time during the tournament. Officials call a push because of excessive body contact and the announcers are saying what a bad call because he got all ball.

They didn't know what "paradigm" and "holistic" meant?!?! Sheez...

Of course it's Packer and Nance. Did anyone else catch Nance say they called 10 seconds in the frontcourt? It was probably around the 17/18 minute mark of the first half.

I did, and I just considered the source.

Okay, 4.2 to go in the half. Obviously the clock doesn't start and the correctly cancel the basket.

But the stupid thing is that they're showing instant replay and Billy Packer is counting, thousand one, thousand two, etc. The problem is they're showing the play in SLO-MOTION!!!

WHAT AN IDIOT!!!

The replay was to check the shot clock. It was reset to 21 seconds. The timer had already reset it to 35 as he was thinking that possession was going the other way. The C came in late with the call that the ball was tipped right at the point of the pass.

Looking on replay, I don't see a tip, but there is some contact. Perhaps he passed on the contact and gave the OOB. Or maybe he just missed the call.

Nance said something like he never could get control about this play and agreed with Packer that it was a travel.
