The talking heads on college basketball games invariably know bupkis about the rules. I find that pretty much all of the complaining about basketball refs around here comes from guys who have never done it. I didn't watch every game this weekend, so I don't know what happened in those instances cited here. However most of the time when I saw close calls reviewed, it appeared the ref's call was correct. I don't even respond much in the game threads anymore to the "These refs blow!" and "That was a horrible call! We were robbed!" because all too often what I saw on the TV - in-game or on replays - it looked like the right call. Now of course, they're not always right, and yes there are problems with the "old boys clubs" at the top. But that won't change until more people get involved.

So here's my annual appeal to those who think it's so easy to get the right call every time: please join your local association. If you're all that good, we could sure use your help! I've made that appeal every year since I've been on these things, however I haven't heard from anyone who has. But that door is still open, and always will be! :)
