I -ing hate CBS

I thought the narrative on Tru-TV was out of control. This video from a different set of losers is just unreal. Re: the lane violation: "I mean I don't know what the rule is there, but wow, you should never enforce that rule."

I am not a fan of CBS bringing in the NBA guys. More often than not they are just talking out their backsides. Reggie Miller today was a prime example of that.

 

[Orangezoo]

every single news outlet was ready to cream their pants with excitement over cuse, the scandal ridden 1 seed being served justice as the first 1 to lose to a 16. now they are pissy they didnt get to see it happen and trying to justify it psuedo happened ..

 

[HoustonCuse]

Apparently the Asheville coach is claiming his team is clearly better and the refs cost them the game as well. I can't find the press conferences but he is quoted in game stories as saying that. Very rarely do you hear that kind of talk from a 16 seed.

The NBA guys are terrible...Charles and Kenny cram a season's worth of game viewing into that past 4 games, just to have a scant knowledge of what the hell they are watching.

So the UNCA coach is a classless jerkoff like virtually everyone that resides in the state of North Carolina. Good to know.

He can go *** himself.

I believe he said something along the lines of the better team "today". He may be wrong, but with the blown calls and the team's season done, he may have been doing the right thing for his troops. It isn't a shot at Syracuse as much as it was the officiating...which missed some EASY calls, like the OOB and the off the backboard goaltending. Ive heard much worse said in the heat of passion, I think this is getting blown up bigger than it needs to be, and the media is loving every moment of it.

 

[HoustonCuse]

Thank god they didn't win, or we'd have a steady dose of that moron on ESPN as a studio analyst for the next 3 years.

I'm not sure on the non call goal tend that Southerland didn't tip/block the shot before Christmas blocked it off the backboard. If Southerland touched it, it wouldn't have been a goaltend. The lane violation was the right call and anyone who is questioning it is just being rediculous. Let's just move on and beatKSU.

Southerland did touch the ball.

3 things:

1) when watching the lane violation watch joseph not do a thing and get boxed all the way back to the foul line. does he realize the situation and how important the rebound might be? he is the softest least aggressvie player I've ever seen and I'll be happy when he's gone.

2) wish this guy, the director of officials or whatever, would discuss the play at the end of the half when we got screwed out of two Fts. the only thing i need him to explain is the rule and what happened there.

3) he said the foul on triche on the out of bounds play was not a foul and called it incidental contact b/c they were both going for ball.

How can they say that when the head of officials was on TruTV and confirmed that there were TWO lane violations on that play? Both would have been the right call. They should read the rules before they open their mouths.

 

[goodroc]

Is that correct if the ball is tipped then cannot be goaltend?

 

[orangenauburn]

yes

Kenny Smith cannot speak.

"Cada-sada cyid I suppose." He just said that. What.

I kind of like him anyway...lol

 

[chlywtr]

yes...just like a tipped pass at the line of scrimmage can't be pass interference

of course it was seth davis and he says "i think we can all agree that the lane violation shouldn't have been called..given the situation" and the head official guy said 'we can't pick and choose'

can you imagine - so in the last 2 minutes of a close game people start getting a running head start on rebounding fts because seth davis believes you shouldn't call it a violation in that situation.

What blown calls?

 

[Cusefan95]

Jesus, we've got media guys arguing that the refs shouldn't have called the lane violation correctly. Why don't they just come out and say what they really mean - they think a sixteen seed should get every possible officiating break in a close game, rules be damned?

I personally would be embarrassed to actually state on air that the officials shouldn't call the game by the rules because, ya know, I'd like it better if they were totally arbitrary in what the hell they called. As long as all the calls went against the #1 seed.

Way to go Seth. Douchenozzle...

 

[SURules]

Southerland did touch the ball.

I was pretty clear that Southerland touched the ball like you said. I didn't know. The Refs had the right call then. The call at the end where they think Triche wasn't the last to touch it should have been a foul anyway.

That would be like John McEnroe saying you shouldn't call a double fault when you're serving match point down. I get you generally let some things go late in a game, but the lane violation wasn't even close. The guy's foot was on the freaking line the entire time aside from the other guy coming in out of nowhere.

 

[GFTakedown]

What kills me is in the 1st half when Keita was called for goaltending when the ball was just released from the shooter's hand. I stopped it and rewatched it three times to check it out! Can they show that the refs screwed that up also.

That's weird--because right after the game on the TruTV coverage, Seth Davis was the only one on the panel arguing that the right call was made on the lane violation. Someone else said: "if you're a ref, you have to swallow your whistle there."

To which Seth replied: "Why? That's what rules are for--and if rules are violated, calls have to be made."

Strange that he would change his tune later on.
