Thanks! We won coz they only had 5 guys & 1 got a sprain late in the game. 0/4 but all my shots just rolled in & out. Played decent defense, a few rebounds and assists. 0 turnovers. Not bad just didn't score.

Next week is the real test. Our opponent next week just scored 60 pts tonight in their game.

The one at Auburn? Thats a good price, even with the $AU near parity, with shipping jerseys are barely cheaper to ship here from the NBA store than buying them straight from Rebel and other retailers.

Do you think there's a way to weed out troublemakers on the court?

Shotgun to the kneecaps/head?

I wonder how the Miami jersey sales are going this season, say in comparison to the year they won the championship (2006)?

I am just at awe at how right referees think they are. I don't know how long they have been at it, but I've been playing so long that I know I'm right as far as rules go.

But some of the amateur ones I didn't know till it happened in a game because I always watch pro leagues. Like the airball shot, it is legal to catch your airball if it was a considered a shot and not a pass to yourself. In the pros, that's a violation.

OT: sorry loss for Aus at netball. They had their opportunities and didn't take it. Double overtime. What a rule, first to win by two goals - table tennis, tennis, volleyball?

I just remembered a good block that was called a foul and he reacted with a little frustration (they were losing/behind), all the members of the other team chest bump him like they wanted a fight including a spectator.

He was the one reprimanded when all the other aholes were trying to start something

He was a ref as well (you'd think the refs would side with him) hahaha

yeah they had the chance to win the game early in the sudden death O/T the aus shhooter rushed her shot
missed then the kiwis hit back intercepted and took the lead.. a costly miss...

a good effort tho

With Oz dominance in the games overall so complete I was happy to see NZ win Gold. Also a loss can be good for character building and increase hunger and determination to better yourself so there's positives to be taken from it.

Referees are always right...even when they're wrong.
