Fuck you, Kelvin Sampson.

 

[Jake]

Scum losing almost makes up for the Buckeye loss tonight.

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

Kindly drink bleach and go fuck yourself while you're at it

oh, trust me, the shot glass and the dildo are already out.

 

[Dee-Liem]

Make your Gosh Darn free throws Houston.

 

[Buckeye513]

I wasn't sure what my nightmares tonight would be about until I saw that slow-mo of Sieg Heil chasing Poole.

 

[nomatta]

I just puked all over the place.

Watching Gonzaga hit all their FTs at the end to keep the game out of reach while Houston misses three so that Michigan can hit a prayer to send them to the S16...

Oh, damn, I just puked again.

 

[HenryMuto]

Why did Houston not have someone on the inbounder ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FAWK miracle shot

no matter the improbability of an unfortunate outcome, i always have my finger on the remote at the end of the game. if the game ends on something that pisses me off, i turned that channel with the reflexes of a feral cat on meth.

with 3.9 to go, i think that was the right call.

Lost in all of this, again, is how basketball is the only sport where teams deliberately commit infractions to increase their chances of winning. But I may as well piss in the wind, as the masses somehow don't see the absurdity of it and "make your free throws" is the mantra.

That said, given the rules (no matter how ridiculous), Houston had the game in their hands and let it slip away. Fuck Michigan.

Sure didn't look like the right call.

 

[TDunk]

Of course Michigan does this

and wins

There are "professional fouls" in soccer all the time. Most famous example:



I don't see how you can change the rules in basketball to make it a less valid strategy.

Make the bonus two shots. Double bonus two shots + possession. Solves the silliness, and solves the problem of the last two minutes of the game taking fifteen minutes to resolve.

So scUM pulls that crap and a Juggalo vs Kentucky elite 8 is highly probable. Gross.
