Ball Watching
 
Is it just me or is the shorter older official in the Marquette/West Virginia game watching the ball all over the court? He even turns his shoulders to the play when it is clearly not in his area...I'm somewhat surprised at how blatant it is.

It only really irritates me when he is the C and he is looking back at a non-competitive match-up dribbling up the court that the Trail is perfectly capable of handling by himself.

He's got an extra set of eyes on the back of his head, like my Mom, and most of my elementary school teachers.
