There was a stretch where Michigan State was mugging Duke relentlessly and nothing was called. And I DO NOT LIKE DUKE.

Lone clone, I used to think that clone fans were the exception when it came to complaining about officials and not being able to take the blinders off. After spending way too much time on this board, however, I have realized that about 75 percent of college bball fans have no ability to take the blinders off and watch a game objectively. If Iowa was duke in this game playing mich st we would be getting totally "shafted" according to most on this board, but since most are rooting for mich st, they are of course getting screwed. College refs obviously suck, but it usually all evens out by the end of the game (sans iowa @ uni 2011).

No problem, Dan. If you ever need any assistance with your own blinders just seek me out. I'm here to help. I know you aren't a part of that 75 percent though so you shouldn't have to worry...

I don't even know if I was being sarcastic or not. I'm watching the game and singing, "One of these things is not like the other..."
Don't know if you were being sarcastic or not? Ha I got to say Dan you are one interesting cat. I just assumed that you were. And yes, this game looks to be getting ugly fast. Duke is way too good and this isn't even that great of a Michigan St team.Originally posted by DanL53:

Dan's even worse than that 75%. He thinks there's some kind officiating conspiracy in college basketball.Originally posted by pocha444444:

Just my opinion, I was thinking something along the line of his assets don't measure well in AAU ball or even on Oak HIll's team. Player rankings are often measures of individual skills and not team ball.

Great! Than why do you try?Big fella (and you must be a real big guy as tough as you talk) I wasn't giving anybody grief. What is it with all the hate? Look up there Dude! ^^^^ You went to a lot of work to cut me down.
You stalked me twice to slam a post in my face. Why? If you don't like my opinions, put me on ignore.
Not hard is it?
By the way, there is no psychiatric training to teach anyone to read minds. Mind reading doesn't really exist.
I can't watch an ISU game objectively, and it's been a long, long, LONG time since I thought otherwise. But in my case, and I think with most fans, the bias isn't usually a matter of disagreeing with a single call -- like a block/charge. It's a matter of seeing all the times a bad call went against my team and not seeing the times a bad call went against the opponent.
I could guard Trice if they allowed me to grab handfuls of jersey like Duke does. It is disgusting how much the Duke and Ky players get away with. Mich St got away with in in conference play but not against Duke.
