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.

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?

knight: are your f**cking ears bleeding yet?!!!
valentine: say it, don't spray it

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).

WTF?
