I don't mean to bag on the NBA, but did the last minute of that Bulls game take about 20 minutes?

 

my dad has been bitching about that for years and i don't blame him. worst part about baskettall, hands down

I don't see how you fix it aside from doing something like adding a bonus foul shot to any team fouled with the lead in the last 60 seconds.

 

i'm referring more to the constant timeouts at the end of games.

Well, there were 4 timeouts (2 full, 2 20 second) called in the last two minutes of the game today for a total of 4 minutes. I'm not sure how that compares with all of the free throws.

it's funny, the program guide says blackhawks vs. predators and games last a long time and i haven't seen any of it on tv, yet. thank the Lord for internet streams.

 

can't wait for 15 minute block of commercials, oh wait, that's happening [expletive] now. versus you suck ass, you suck ass and you die.

Every time I regret not playing organized hockey as a kid I see something like that and regret it less.

Well, you could have been not an idiot and worn a facemask of some sort. I didn't have the option of wearing a special knee brace that would have protected me from knee-blow-outs when I played football

I've got all my chompers and a straight nose. Gotta wear a full cage, of course.

Oh, I would have wore a mask (don't they require it anyways in youth hockey). I'm a wussy.

 

Oh yeah definitely required. I'm sure these days they require full body armor and they probably play with foam pucks until high school. I hope I'm exaggerating about that last part.

 

What a great game. And now I'm totally freaking pumped about heading up to the UC on Saturday. Haven't been there since 2001. Can't wait!

The Cubs ruined a perfect day. Oh well.

 

Certainly you aren't surprised by this.

 

I'm more surprised the Bulls won and was not expecting good things from the Hawks game.

for the people who actually got to watch the game-

 

- how did campbell look?

 

- how did the hawks play in general? i see that the shots were about even. did niemi stand on his head? did we outplay them? by how much?
