This Must have Been a Horribly Officiated Game.

Several outlets attest that Louisville's home loss to UNC was an epic rod job. Here is a sampling: https://www.cardchronicle.com/2022/2/1/22913709/north-carolina-awarded-90-83-ot-win-over-louisville

247 had a lot to say also.

Holy crap, in the screen shot, below, the foul was called on the Louisville player. lol It reminds me of scenes from the the movie "The Express" when Syracuse went to play Texas in a bowl game Texas players were committing blatant and egregious penalties against Ernie Davis and the officials instead called the penalties on Syracuse.

We were treated the same way back in the late 60s and early 70s by ACC refs. Get used to it if you challenge Tobacco Road in the ACC.

There were questionable games and calls. I was there, too. But this was at a whole other level.

Its SOP for fans to complain about the refs/umpires, but this is on a whole new level.
BLATANT.

Rod job?!!

I’ve resided in South Carolina for 45 years. Never heard that one.

I was watching that game - it was pretty bad. I was a bit shocked that they upheld some of those calls after reviewing the play on the monitor. I don't know what they were looking at.

I used to hear it in my place of employment all the time. That was in South Carolina also. It described when someone was administered the shaft by another person or persons. It was not an uncommon reference. Rod jobs were frequent occurrences usually related to distribution of work.

Think I heard it once at a repair shop.

I'm not sure if you drink with your pinkie out or not, but people who do probably wouldn't hear the same things.

And a brake job came with it!

Piston rod jobs are the worst.

I was watching a friend who works on all his engines. Wouldn't dream of doing it myself. Anyway it was "rod" related so there you go.

I’ve administered many a rod job in my day.

Define "pinkie".
