I know people love to suggest things with hyperbole, but they have added more than a second in most situations just in this tournament alone.



Says who? If you pay to go to their games or watch their games, not sure what you are talking about. If you do not like it, do not watch or go to games. And the minute time is not put on the clock or a coach loses a game because of this situation, then nothing is going to change. I do think that many decisions are made because of public concern, but this is not one of them that is going to make much difference.



I do not even know what this has to do with anything. The Presidents decide what is OK or not OK. Rules like this are not based off of morals, they are based off of things to have a fair playing field. If anything that whole idea of trying to do that creates other problems. And it is not related to anything we are discussing about a playing rule.



Again, who cares? I certainly do not when it comes to this discussion right now.



OK, it is important. It is important because the minute that something happens (and it has) with relationship to the clock and someone is not given the right time or the right time does not end up on the clock near the end of the game, ESPN will loop that play and YouTube will loop that play until they get tired of talking about it. Then they will list the situation in the Top 10 worst officiating mistakes in history and tell everyone how the "wrong" team advanced and won the title. Please, stop it with the hyperbole and exaggeration. And people are already complaining about something that is safety based and now you want to add another review and people will complain when that review takes several minutes and a team has time to discuss a play without a single timeout left. Yep, let us do that.

Peace
We are simply going to have to agree to disagree then. Personally I find the arrogance you are showing with the I'm right and you must be wrong sickening and am done discussing this with you because nothing pisses me off more than dealing with blowhards like yourself. Have a good day.
