National C'Ship

[tref]

I thought there were 2 or 3 questionable above the rim calls made by the L. Other than that it was pretty consistent & no GIs.

Not that I'm into the Fray or nothing like that, but I thought it was original & a pretty cool remix. It was definitely better than some of the students that get out there & embarass themselves at my games.

Should've just had Monica do the anthem like she did for one of the Final Four games...that rendition last night was...."interesting."

Yep. I said that on my FB page before it was even over. That was probably the worst rendition of the National Anthem I have heard in a very long time if not ever.

I'm a bit biased so I'll chime in later

Memo to APG: 1 play I'd LOVE to see again is the play in the 2nd half (sorry no time, but I'm sure you remember) where the Kansas player is OOB on the endline while tapping it back in play. The whistle-work, the communication & the style was so beautiful!! If I could incorporate some of that in my game, maybe I could be

FTR, I thought it was clear to the 2 players at the end of the bench, not so much to the coaching staff located at the top of the bench.

I just have to ask how old you are because your posts indicate an excitement for flashy over-the-top mechanics and contain the use of camp catch-phrases. I'm guessing that you are between 24 and 27 with about five years of HS basketball officiating experience. Perhaps I am wrong, but you come across that way on the forum to me.

PS are you a bit biased because you are from Denver where Verne Harris lives and perhaps you have interacted with him previously?

What about me? Oh damn, I posted video of myself.

For the record, I haven't had the pleasure to interact with Verne Harris, but I thought he did a really nice job last night.

I'd bet that The Fray made a lot more money for their version than those students you're referring to. Whoever paid them should ask for a refund.

Original it was (for a good reason) but I'm puzzled how a live performance can be called a remix.
