Opening tips

[Timonen]

Continuing down the path of "innocuous threads that don't really matter," do we concede the opening tip every game? Can't remember the last time Rak won it. If we cared, I imagine Grant would be doing it at this point.

I've noticed this also. And the past 10 games or so since I've noticed, we haven't won one.

We lost the one to NCSt because the official threw the ball up at an angle towards the State guy. Couldn't believe it at the time, it looked planned but was probably just a bad toss. What is so hard about tossing a ball straight up in the air?

it's a seemingly small detail but yes it is alarming. and as soon as we lost again last night everybody in the room looked over expecting the tirade. alas i have given up that fight.
