Honestly I could see the call standing. But it shouldn’t be. SGA sold the **** out of that

So scrub teams can be a training ground, that’s noted.

I feel like it's a generally accepted thing for refs to call fouls on fallen players. This may be a legit foul but I never see players slip and they let the play go on.

SGA missed FT. No repeat of G4 comeback now.

My wife's cats got out of the house and I just spent the last hour tracking them down. They've gotten her through some pretty hard life-stuff, so she was understandably apoplectic and inconsolable. We found them, though, so this glass of wine is well-earned.

I know none of y'all care, but it's late here and I had to tell someone. Ha ha

I'm not sure I've ever seen a team not get a clean look off of like 4 defenders jumping in air.

I could do with a full third less kick and more drive
