The CheckerBoard

I was @ Rupp tonight. Officiating looked awful live how bad was it on tv?

I have to admit I like Dykes and Nessler as broadcasters. Maybe they were playing ESPN's theme of basketball cathedrals a little heavy tonight. Kentucky's tradition is obvious and we need few reminders. Having been to Rupp, I don't find much special about it other than the win percentage. But in general, I like Nessler's casual enthusiasm and Dykes' insight on the fundamental details of the game. I also appreciated that they spoke reality about the poor play of Stokes & Golden while at the same time crediting McRae and Yemi (although drawing those conclusions tonight isn't exactly revolutionary).

It was ridiculous because they called the first 7 fouls of the 2n half on us. Then they realized that and started calling ticky tack fouls to even out the foul situation so both teams ended up in the Double Bonus at like 6 min mark and a bunch of people fouled out
