One more thought on the game, or UK vs UNC in general.

Dec. 2011 game ended with Davis blocking a last second UNC shot.
Nov. 2016 game ended with UNC taking a last second shot & the ball getting stuck in the rim.
Mar. 2017 game ended with UNC hitting a last second shot after a walk that wasn't called.

We've also gotten the *** whistle countless times in the Dean Dome.

You guys be on the lookout for the upcoming thread on RR where one of those industrious fellows over there puts together a video montage of all of the horrible calls in the first half yesterday. Then copy that vid and post it here.

TIA

Hey guys, I just reconfigured my name -- don't worry though, it's still the same great posting.


Whew! What a relief!

I was afraid the name reconfiguration was a meaningless message board metaphor for a recent but abrupt adjustment to your world views and would thusly have a profoundly adverse affect on your thought process in turn straining your ability to post in a thoughtful and lucid manner.

- Sports Illustrated

Oh GD!!! Trolling SOBs!!!! That cuts deep! What class? Getting My D Sucked Graduate Study. F U.

"Calipari cries foul after loss to UNC"
- Sporting News

OH F U

*i honestly legit believe, and totally understand, that e-outlets troll the **** out of BBN because we actually click on this crap in full force because it just means more, dammit. There is not another fanbase that participates in everything as much as BBN does.

Whatever. F everybody. We'll whip your *** on the football field now how bout dat??? They hate will be out of control if we ever become SEC East contenders.

Why bother, Mash, it doesn't matter. Yesterday was a prime example that a whistle can make or break a game. Yeah, I know that you can point to UK took the lead late. That's great, but defensively, they were scared to touch UNCheat because of the earlier rape whistle. They had no clue how to guard UNCheat. Higgins is a f***ing *****, and I hope he gets *** cancer, AIDS, Bird Flu, and the motherf***ing plague all at the same GD time,

Actually I hate to say this. But watching the game just isn't that fun anymore due to the politics against UK.

I agree. Why even bother. It's a set up.
This. While I love that we are on top of the mountain, it just isn't fun anymore. Hasn't been since Noel got hurt. I lost a lot of faith in the media, and the sports world in general when Ware broke his leg and the world held a candlelight vigil and he was probably getting handys in the hotel room from 4th street hoes while sidelined, yet when Noel went down about 9 months later, this ****:



Again, just broken right now, and seriously thinking of a disconnect like the Tubby years. It just isn't fun anymore.

Herod I agree with everything you stated.

The fix is in. Look at how duke is constantly opposite of any major competition. Look at how UNC gets the favored call. It's all horse ****.

It's getting to the point that I just don't care anymore. There was nothing Cal could do yesterday to fend off those refs. That game was straight fixed

This 100%. We always get a tough draw or paired with the rat bastard higgins. Meanwhile unc and duke get a red carpet l to the final four. Sad thing is nothing can be done about it. Not unless conferences go to super conferences. I guess I'm going to have to quit getting so invested in these games cause we just get ****ed in the end.

Dude, it's like WWE wrasslin' except UK is the only real wrestler in the organization.

All of it pre-scripted.

We guarded them very well. Forced TOs, had them rattled. Couldn't ask for much more on that side....maybe few more rebounds.

I was positive if we could hold them under 80 we would win. Didn't think we'd go full tard on O + sit our starters the first half bc stupid fouls.

Basically. As long as duke and unc are around they are the darlings and we will how to fight tooth and nail to get anywhere. It's unfair but I don't think there is much to be done about it.

To be honest, after the horseshit officiating of the first half, I sorta just wanted Cal to quietly put the team on the plane and head home. Just leave everyone wondering wtf just happened?

Yeah, that woulda happened if I was coach.

Female announcer "where's Willy and the team"

Female Announcer: "we just got word that Willy flipped off arena and told the NCAA to go f*** them selves"

Or blow a 5 point lead with 5 min to go in about 47.2 seconds. I mean hell, we got up 5, had the big mo, then they held us while scoring on 3 consecutive trips and BOOM, game over. We pulled an Arkansas. WTF?

I would love if the NCAA made officials available like they do coaches and players in the post game. It would stop 99.9% of the ********. When they constantly have to defend their mistakes, then they will start thinking twice on the whistles.

Question for Mr. Higgins

Reporter: "So Jon, what was going through your mind as you were screwing UK in the first half?"

I need to move on. Every time I read about that game, it's just re-living a traumatic event. Like it's happening again.

Slept like **** last night. Thermometer in my room said it was 64, but I was roasting all night. Got up to piss 3-4 times.

Agreed it's been my face as well. On rafters someone called john higgins.

What'd they say?


Thing that pisses me off is technology and cameras have replaced these old *** ego-maniac refs. If we know, the whole arena clearly saw you blew a call the instant it was made, that call should be reversed at the scorers table instantly. Without a damn 5 min pow wow. That's another thing. If there is an opportunity to correct a call, they make some big *** production about it like everybody can't clearly see what happened.

Officials are the po-lice. F them.

Guaran-goddamn-tee this is the conversation to every scorer's table discussion, ever.

Ref Richard Dickenass:Wow, that ball is clearly out in the other team there. His foot is out of bounds and still touching the ball. How in the hell did you miss that? You were looking right at it, Bob!

Ref Bob McCants Eashit:I don't know, Dick, I mean, this is my fourth game this week. I missed that block/charge call last night that made the losing coach call me a blind *******. Plus, this team just pisses me off, honestly. I just kinda call what I want if it looks like they did it. I'm kinda screwed on this one though, they've already played it seven times to the crowd. They'll kill me if we let this thing stand.

Ref Hugh Jassle: Don't worry about it Bob. A quick run after the buzzer, you can be out of here before the crown can get past the ice cream stands. Here's what we'll do, after review, the player it was actually out on pushed off to get to the ball. Two shots to the away team, and if he missed one we'll call a lane violation just to piss these pricks off for booing your technical of their coach in the first half.

Bob: Thanks Hugh, no wonder you've called 7 Final Fours. You really know how to referee.

*Bob runs to talk to play-by-play guys three minutes later after they point and make fun of fans at the game.*

Bob:After looking at the tape, we have a foul on 3 with 4.2 on the clock, two shots away team with first and goal at midcourt. Touchdown Patriots.

I don't remember honestly. There was a thread about it. They are untouchable really.

Watched that stuff with same group of UNC fans from December. They loved my misery. F*k them and everything else today. Awful.

Why did I do that? Stupid as hell decision. NEVER again. Regular season is one thing. Not tournament.

I a dumb.

Over it, mostly.

C'mon Bamba. Let's go 2017-18.

Damn, man. Reality is sinking in...and it is hitting hard.

I gots no team left to root for in this tourney. And my usual distractions from such a calamity are MIA...I gots no skunk hunting eye doc to make fun of for his inability to hit a curveball and his insistence on operating his entire life on the wrong time. And I gots no Industrial league stat keeping hero to make fun of for cross dressing as Cher whilst listening to G n' R in his man loft all while operating his life on the very same wrong *** time as the skunk hunting eye doc.

DAMNIT, SCHPEERZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!
