ESPN comments on officiating-you'll love it

[OrangeFan1]

I still don't know how Ivory Latta didn't get a technical after her layup when she flexed her biceps and yelled "Get up!" at our players...you don't get away with that kind of behavior in the men's game.

It's hysterical that that bug-eyed midget thinks she's a bodybuilder...but it should have been a technical.

I just love this. Calling her that bug-eyed midget. Too funny! lol: Yeah, in the men's games that would have been an instant technical.

 

[ut 4 me]

Just another example of ESPN sticking it to Tennessee

its their little way of sticking to the man. (UT is the man)

There was an 8 foul difference, right? How many times did they foul on purpose at the end?? Like 4? That makes it a 4 foul diff...nothing much at all.

bug eyed midget, LOL Thanks you made my morning. My husband says every time he looks at her he goes cross eyed.

Hoot Owl was the name I coined her.

Exactly! How did that Teletubby (whoever said this on the game thread, big props, so true) not get T'ed up on that?

lol:

Phew, glad someone else sees it.

You'll LOVE this. ESPN is whining that NC Women's basketball team was victim of foul disparity. Where were they when Ohio State was going to the line every 10 seconds???

Direct Quote from ESPN website:

"Yet North Carolina's Ivory Latta and Camille Little and Duke's Lindsey Harding and Alison Bales all end their college careers without NCAA titles. Some things just don't add up.

Speaking of which … Sunday's officiating is bound to get a thumbs' down from some observers. How could two evenly matched No. 1 seeds -- both with extremely athletic players -- have such a disparity in fouls called (22 for Carolina and 14 for Tennessee) and free throws shot (6-of-8 for UNC to 20-of-26 for Tennessee)?

The Tar Heels don't know, and there's not going to be any answer for them. Starters Little and LaToya Pringle fouled out, and Latta finished with four fouls. Only one Tennessee player, Sidney Spencer, had as many as four fouls."

ESPN.com - NCW/NCAATOURNEY07 - Voepel: UNC blows lead, loses in semis for second year in a row

well espn can take that load of s:censored:t and shove it back up there :shaking2: cause we out played UNC and they know it

The announcers said during the game that they allowed yelling and acting out, as long as it wasn't directly focused on an opposing player, so i guess that is why she didn't get T'd up. She does annoy the heck out of me with her attitude though. She also reminds me of a goomba from super mario bros.
