Only one gym, of the seventy high schools that we service, has the lights. I was there last week, and the lights behind only one backboard worked. The lights down the other side were broken.

I was amused with Bo Ryan getting angry and swearing at the officials *after* the replay review. ESPN even pixilated Ryan's mouth during SportsCenter.

I mean, it's one thing to argue with the live event, but with a replay that he hadn't even seen? To the point of losing his temper?

I had a ticket for last night, but couldn't find a sub for my GV game so I ended up eating it (I listed it on StubHub, but had no takers, even at below-face value). Not sad I missed it. The Badgers are in for a long season if they don't remember how to shoot the ball.

I thought that was excellent! I mean - how can you be mad at the officials after they took theri time to review it and get it right? It's not their fault the player releasedit a hair late and they got the play right! Sheesh!

Yeah — he "mother-f****ed" the officials ... thought that was pretty classless.

Like everyone else has said, the LED lights take precedent. Period. Officials got it right.

Citing information from Daktronics, the company that supplies LED displays and other equipment used at the Kohl Center and other venues, officials said it is normal to have a delay of 0.1 to 0.2 seconds when clock data is relayed from the scorer's table to equipment that generates the images on electronic scoreboards.

Was a great attempt at a shot to force double OT, just came up a little short!
