Greeny managed to both do that and demonstrate his ignorance when it comes to officiating this morning.
He commended the officials, but stated that if that same play happened in game one it should have been a Flagrant 1.

I could see Odom's foul being called a flagrant one under different circumstances...I thought the flagrant two was the correct call for the situation...

Bynum's foul is a flagrant two every single time...classic wind up, impact, and follow through with the forearm on an airborne player...he would have been tossed in game one of the regular season, game one of a playoff foul, game 7 of the NBA Finals...etc.

He does this every day he starts talking about sports. It is not just when he starts talking about officiating for sure.

True enough, but I typically find his perspective to be entertaining; until he starts pontificating on officiating. Then I flip over to music instead.
