Sometimes Even I Couldn’t Make This Stuff Up

Anyone happen to catch last night’s finish between Georgetown and Villanova? What was a painful game to watch, ended in a frenetic fashion that even I couldn’t make up. If you haven’t seen it yet, check this out:

I don’t often point at the officials, but this is just blatantly retarded. How a game like this could be decided by freethrows with 0.1 seconds on the clock is beyond the realm of possibility. The Big East decided to chime in today as well. How they can support this call is unfathomable. The Big East should have done the right thing, the extremely rare thing, and reprimanded the officials. All of them. No, they can’t change what happened, but they don’t have to blindly support their employees like this.

As for whether or not Georgetown should have “accepted” the call, as I have heard argued in various circles, that’s just ludicrous. You take a win any way that you can, and they probably would have won in OT anyway. That is besides the point, however. The Big East should be ashamed of not only it’s officials, but in itself entirely.

    Word is the officials were on loan from the ACC. What I want to know is why your Pack doesn’t move on offense. Can’t you pull some Idiot strings and put the bug in SLowe’s ear that players without the ball NEED TO MOVE. I bet the Pack would improve exponentially.

    I certainly wish I had Sid’s ear, S&P, I’d love to interview him. Me being an idiot, it wouldn’t reflect well on him to take my advice very often however. Those of us coaching from our couches always seem to have the answers, but then we don’t know all the problems now do we?
