Olympics in China- Ref question
 
I think the refs are from FIBA right? I don't know if there is an answer for this but I was reading about the protests in Greece today and who knows maybe there could be a boycott. If the refs are from a country that decides to boycott does that also mean they can't go ref in China? More Olympic fireworks too come for sure.

The FIFA refs have a POE this summer: stop the headbutting to an opponent's chest. :D

I think you mean FIBA.

FIBA I knew that. I was with Italians and Croatians when that game happened. So much fun.

I think it's much too controversial to have the Olympics in China. They should be moved to Antarctica. Everybody loves penguins. :)

Flyer fans don't like Keds, either. What's your point? :confused:

The Penguins are in first. The Flyers are in 4th. That is my point.

Gee, I can't wait for the Olympics so we can get the benefit or reading the Southern California guys' critiques of the officials.
