NBA Refs Are Republicans

We were only minutes into the new NBA season and Rasheed Wallace had already been ejected. The NBA has a new policy in place for technical fouls, it's modeled on the Bush White House and the Military Commissions Act. Rather than deal with the criticism that NBA refs suck out loud and are notoriously biased (like that playoff game in Detroit where Ben Wallace wasn't called for a foul until well into the fourth quarter, I mean Jeezus Horatio Christ on a fucking Skateboard! That's Ben Wallace, he fouls three people on the way out of the locker room)

The new policy is that now the refs can call anything (that's what a tech foul is it's the ref's way of saying "see i got this here fucking whistle and when i blow it i can fuck with you") for like say, no goddamn reason at all. It's as if the NBA said "We won't do anything about improving the quality of the refs and we will strengthen their ability to call bullshit fouls on anyone who points out that they are full of shit." Look for slower games, especially punk ass refs like Bavetta and Jahve who act like everybody in the stands bought tickets to watch them blow their whistles. Look for frustrated players getting whistled for being frustrated and then being tossed out of games because they had a stunned look of disbelief on their faces. I see fights coming, lots of fights. That might be good since that soul less fuck Eisner disneyed fighting out of Hockey when he put that fake team down in Anaheim. It would be better if basketball players not named Mahorn or Oakley didn't all fight like girls.

So, just like the Republicans, the NBA deals with poor performance and corruption by stomping the shit out of anyone who points that out to them. After the all star break they will probably have a deal in place to send anyone who racks up six T's in a month to Guantanamo or one of the Secret Prisons in east Europe.

But ya'll are on notice. Watch out for the Phoenix Suns this year. They run and shoot 'till they make one, then they shoot 'till they miss. That's fun ass Basketball to watch.

I actually know an NBA ref and I dont think he is a republican. However the powers that be are certainly so.

Yeah, I know a ref too. He's actually a decent chap, and not republican at all. I was under the spell of a rant. but I meant what i said about the Suns. Stevie Nash needs to grow his hair back though. Wednesday night he kept reaching up to flip his bangs which aren't there and on the sidelines was doing that "rub the fuzz" thing during huddles. Grow some hair Stevie!

Stevie was let get away by a cheap billionaire named Mark Cuban. Dallas may yet rue the day they let that little Canuk get away. Go Dallas Mavericks.

yeah, we loves us some stevie here, and dallas/phoenix games are among the best anyone will see this season. that dallas game last night was a barn burner (except for the parts where the refs started to drag shit out and down)

i am a pacers fan and have become increasingly disenchanted with the NBA in recent years, even though i am a born hoosier.

i still have my suns tix, semi-decent seats too. i love "boogie-boogie-shoot" basketball. it takes me back to the showtime days of the glorious lakers. i'm especially looking forward to the times when dallas visits. 130pt games again, be still my heart. the poor pacers, they really blew it with artest. guys like artest remind me of the times when i would date a documented crazy woman, the sex could be legendary, but the crazification factor was always the deal breaker. sacramento and the punk bibby deserve him and everything he does to them as a team and a franchise for the way they handled stuff with chris webber. when a guy slaves away in the trenches while a team sucks you don't say "you're too old and expensive now" (like that bitch cuban did to michael finley) for that reason alone it will be worth it to see san antonio kick some mav ass this year.
