My Two Cents Worth

I don't like the new held ball rule. I never really liked the possesion arrow, but they've found something worse! In most cases, when the defense is tying up the opponent, they foul them heavily in the process. Instead of getting called for a foul, which they rightly should, they get the ball back! It's not fair! (I don't much like the NBA, but I do like the rule they use when a jump ball is called. They actually jump the ball for possesion. It doesn't really favor either side.) It's great that good defense is being rewarded, but how much do players have to get away with before it is too much? 1-14-98


Sam Okey quits the Wisconsin basketball team. "Oh----a shoulder shrug----hmm". What!?!?! When Neil Reed and Jason Collier left Indiana everyone raised hell!!!!! Why don't they do that at Wisconsin??? No one questions Coach Bennett's coaching styles! No one finds his replacement somewhere in Missouri!! No one scrutinizes him and the entire athletic program at Wisconsin!!! Why? 1-98
