Breath of Fresh Air

Post by indyfrisco »

First off…props to LSU on the victory Saturday. A&M had a chance to win and didn’t.

Major props to Acie Law on this quote. No excuses. No jon=bitching about refs.
Acie Law IV wrote:"I wasn't fouled. It was incidental contact," Law said. "I wouldn't expect the referee to make that call in the NCAA Tournament second round with a chance to go to the Sweet 16. I wouldn't expect him to make that call to bail us out and I wouldn't expect him to make that call if they were in that situation. With the game on the line, let the players make a play to win it. I got tripped up and was unable to make a play to win it."
I was screaming at the TV for Kavaliauskas to get up on Mitrhell. Mitchell was 4 feet behind the 3 point arc and Kavaliauskas was 2 feet inside the arc. With the clock ticking, you gotta be up on him. You can’t give them the game winning shot uncontested. If he drives by him, so be it. Tie game goes into OT. A&M was the better team for the final 30 minutes of the game. They got off to a shit start, but battled back.

I wasn't rooting for the Big 12, but for A&M, I had you guys beating Cuse in my bracket, I thought you had a good shot at LSU.

It was nice to see a team play with some heart.

That is an awesome statement from Law.

See - that's how you do it, babs. Doesn't look that hard, now does it?

Beats me. I won't even read this forum for another month.

Sin,
Babs.

I wish more players did this... Good read, Frisco.

Cue the Chris Rock take.

Big deal, a player who wasn't fouled made comments saying he wasn't fouled. I may have missed it, but I don't recall PLAYERS complaining about the officials, just fans.

I'll await my props for not being in jail and taking care of my kid.

i thought Kavliaskaus played a helluva game with J. Jones on the bench with four fouls and considering the several minute period "big baby" was allowed to just clear out the lane with body contact in the second half.

If you watched the game, you would have seen it could have gone either way. He was ahead of whoever was chasing him and he got tripped up.

In any case, I see you working. Not biting.
