This is in homage to SWC and his upside/downside. It is my take on the shittier calls of the game by people paid six figures to not suck.
 
having said that...the vast majority of the calls are correct. although this is like saying the vast majority of blind people can dive successfuly into the ocean from a boat anchored in the middle of the ocean.
 
Today I highlight a couple stinkers. ...three actually.
 
-The goaltend on Melo in the first half. What? the ball was barely out of the guy's hand and melo is swatting it to the floor..and they call it goaltending? you could read coach's lips "that was not goaltending" although he said it very politely and matter of fact...full well knowing we were never going to lose this game simply because God hates Rutgers and likes Syracuse.
 
-The call in the second half down the stretch where not one..but two rutgers players swat the ball out of bounds and dick head (you know who you are) says it went of Waiters.
 
-for fairness..the goaltend call against rutgers vs scoop in the second half where melo flushed the rebound. the rutgers player never touched the ball..not that it mattered.
 
-the "block" called on Melo when FD backed his thing up into melo and knocked him flying. This was a bad call on two fronts..first..it was not a block..it was a no call or charge. TWO..if you DO call it a block..the bucket should have counted.
