You're mean. Downright mean. And, meanspirited to boot.

I take the jump ball as seriously as I can for an event that simply puts the ball in place and (usually) happens only once.

Not very.

My point exactly. And I'm as guilty as many other officials.

RichMSN: I changed your quote for Mark Padgett disciples.

Oh, there are other instances where we could jump again

And also, I meant "play", not "place."

Oh no. Don't tell me you drank Mark Padgett's Kool-Aid?

I noticed the place/play keyboarding mistake, but I didn't want to become the Annoying Keyboarding Guy, so I passed on it. My keyboarding skills are terrible. I learned to "type" back in the day on a manual "typewriter" so I bang too hard on the keys and keep hitting extra keys.

I joke about overtime, but I have never run into an overtime where it wasn't a great game and 4 more minutes seemed, well, reasonable. Now, a SECOND overtime, well...

Now this sounds a little more reasonable than the Mark Padgett Philosophy. It's almost time for me to get on my Mark Padgett No Overtime soapbox, but not quite yet. Stay tuned.

I generally agree; with one exception.

I know that you don't care about my anti-Mark Padgett-No Overtime posts. I just can't figure out if you're 100% serious, or not. After all, you have been known to stray from serious posts every once in a great while.
