do you mean the red/green coloring? it's optional and just helps me out but it's not mandatory. I usually check all the games anyway just to make sure the coloring is correct.

Just wanted to make sure you didnt have to do more work than necessary.

twisted3829 · 01-04-2013, 10:55 PM

nope, i usually check all the games or have a general idea of who won at least (makes me feel like I know what's happening although you would never be able to know considering my record lol)

Then you should know that I've lost the will to live.

Meaningless to the outcome, but huge uncontested 3 by Pitt at the end FTW if you had the OVER (the OU was 128). I practically had that game marked down as an L. If you had the UNDER you probably said FTW at the end too.

Was watching that without knowing the O/U. Pitt was called for a foul with 5.3 seconds left after a Rutgers rebound. I think they were going to let the clock run out, but the ref blew a whistle on a Pitt player who slightly bumped his guy running away from the play. There was definitely no foul on that play.

I put in a call to Higgins. Was he the one who made the call? Actually thinking it through I am not sure he was doing the game. Might have been Burr.

Never count out the Jackal. Off to a slow start but starting to pick things up. He will be there at the end. Bank on it!!!!

Lyons is a man this season. Miller seems to have him playing within himself. The bogus blocking foul near the end of regulation would have set him hopping and scowling all over the court at any point over the last three seasons.

It is not to Mack's credit that he can recruit top kids but can't seem to keep the egos under control and in the game for the sake of the team. He needed to dump Lyons, but Miller he ain't.

I didn't like Tad Boyle's comments after the game. Replay is a good thing for any sport, and while it didn't happen to get the call right here, that's not a reason to say 'get rid of it.'

Own up to your loss, Mr. Boyle. Your team was up 10 with less than two minutes to play. It shouldn't have come down to a three point buzzer beater to win the game.

Very impressive with the over/unders, ace. Keep it going.
