...All the whistles are driving me nuts.

GREAT Pac start. Go Bears.

NCAA wants game to have higher scoring to get player to stop hand checking. But the flip side is adding to the already long parade of fouls, bonuses, double bonuses, endless allotted timeouts, and TV timeouts. Did you notice how our last two games the previous games overlapped into ours without the games not even close to being over?

Definitely noticed, and driving me nuts. Especially when UConn is ahead by 20 and they are playing the foul/timeout BS over and over.Helles Belles, warm up the bus and get it over. These coaches feel like they have to protect their big bucks and fight to the end, even tho' impossible. I think any game that is 10+ with under 2 minutes should be cut off with a move to the new game starting. Then if things tighten up there, go back for updates, but do not penalize the fans of the next game having to watch a blowout and hating on ESPNU, or whatever the channel. If it is under 6 they have justifiable excitement at the end of a game. Otherwise, bye-bye.

that was fouled the choice of shooting the free throws or taking the ball with a fresh 35-second clock in the last 3 minutes of the game.
