Generally speaking, there are a few really bad calls each game. Refs are human. It happens. In addition to that, there are around 15-20 calls that could be labeled 50/50, judgment calls. That is very unscientific. Maybe it’s 10. Maybe it’s 30. Regardless, on each of those judgment calls, both fanbases think they got screwed. The calls even out. Stop whining….EVERYBODY.
This has been my TED talk.

He made a lot of good adjustments during the game. However, I think some of his negative energy spills over to his team. Iowa made that game close at the end because McCaffery rested his starters late second half and damn near made an incredible comeback at the end when he put them back in against a gassed Jays team.

Love what you bring to the board Vivid, but this post is just massive arrogance.
