Does this qualify for obscure reference of the day?

FYI, the rule is the same for the NBA.

i understand it appears like i'm totally overreacting, but if you look at all of the threads i've created, over half of them have people either insulting me for talking about pro sports (officiating is officiating), or they're insulting the nba just because they think outrageous things, such as thinking the nba is fake (wow).

i have less than 100 posts on here, and i'm already super frustrated with the hate of the nba. if you hate the nba, fine, but it's an officiating forum, and if i make a thread about an officiating question, it shouldn't matter from what league.

thanks to the people who actually say "hmm, an officiating question, i think i'll answer/discuss it to the best of my knowledge, regardless of what league it's for".

this thread is over as my question has been answered, but in case you can't tell, i'm not going to ignore the fact that a good amount of posts in my threads are just people who go from thread to thread looking to insult something.

As I've posted already....NBA-related threads have been treated like this long before you came along. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with you.

You just as well ignore it because you sure as hell aren't going to change anyone's mind. People are entitled to their opinion. You just stir the $hitstorm when you complain about it.

Bro, if you come here to post then you better just get used to the hatred guys (and gal- julie) on here have for the pro game. Don't let it bother you. I personally love the pro game better than the college game. I believe the players are the best of the best, the coaches are reasonable (and when they're not they get chucked), the players speak to you ( I hate working a whole game and only talking to coaches, Just my personal preference), there are more plays to the hoop and if they don't drive they can actually hit a jumper. The athleticism at the pro level is just sickening and in a league all its own. When i go from a pro to a college game, it is night and day. If i'm lucky there is one, maybe two supremely athletic players on the court, but usually neither can consistently hit a jumper, and this is D1 basketball.

That being said, there are plenty of guys (officials) i would go to war with on a nightly basis. I say war because college gyms can be hectic and crazy. They are all on top of you and just breathing down your neck and that is the only thing that supercedes the pro game over the college game in my opinion.
