Something new to me...

Oh there were foul shots.

At least one didn't hit the rim. Others were drilled off the rim. The crowd was really hoping for at least one bucket.

After the first half, I was hoping for a shut out since I thought it'd be cool to post on here. hahaa

That's been my experience too, especially in Wreck Ball.

Sick! Funny, but sick!

Since our local kids rec league starts in 3rd grade, we occasionally have a shutout. A few years ago, I was training some HS kids to be officials in a 3rd-4th grade girls game and the final score was 5-0. The main topic of conversation by the kids and parents after the game was excitement because one of the girls actually made a free throw.

Oh yeah - at that grade level there's no OT. Games that end in a tie after regulation are just that - a tie. The kids don't care.

Amazing...must have some pulseless parents in that league.

They say it's like kissing your sister. At least that's what they used to say back in the good old days when there were lots of ties, before there were overtimes in football, and hockey, or shootouts in hockey, and soccer.

I reffed an intramural woman's game in college......final was 4-0. Thanks goodness the girls were easy on the eyes because they sucked on the court.

A sentence to be careful of!

By the way, speaking of shut outs, ask a wrestling official if he's ever had a negative final score.
