I think his body language and movements make him stand out but it is not as bad as some. It is a proven fact that there is an official out west that had a very low percentage of good calls in the final four of 2004. Yet, he is held in high regard. Meanwhile, he looks like a total BAFOON while doing it! How does this differ from Teddy? Teddy is strong with his movements and getting solid angles. His mechanics are one of a kind but he has had a good look. It's not like he is jumping around, going too low at the C/stopping in the middle of the paint and getting horrible angles all the time. Someone should try to jump around for a few minutes and see what kind looks you get. :D

Sorry for the rant, I've been in a class all week and had some stuff bottled up.

DH? Just curious...

Wait a second, Teddy T'd up Bobby Knight, Bobby didn't like it, and Teddy's still officiating? How is this possible?! My faith in Old School is fading fast. Help?

Does anyone know the crew that did Ohio State/Wisconsin game Sunday?

Just my ignorance as they are biggies and I don't know their names.

Fun to watch the real pros.....

If you are going to fill out two brackets. Do one manually, and do the other with the Bracket-O-Matic (www.bracketomatic.com).
