    You must not have noticed how most of the people on here loathe ESPN, so no, I doubt anyone has bothered to start a group associated with the **********s from Bristol.

            I don't like the commercials locking me in anytime I switch a game or any time the game I'm watching has a TV timeout. My TV doesn't lock me into advertisements. I don't mind the coke zero 30 second commercial for switching games as much, but the fact that it makes you watch the whole TV timeout is ridiculous.

                  So apparently I log in and wathc via Xfinity, though if I want the CBS game it sends me to the CBS site, though if I want the TBS/TNT/TruTV game from there it won't send me back to Comcast so I have to enter it manually.

                    To be fair, your TV costs money for 3 of the channels.

                    I view it as a challenge to get over to the computer once the CBS music for a timeout starts.

                      Right now, Syracuse should be the first #1 seed ever to lose to a 16. What a load of officiating garbage.

                        UNC Asheville got robbed. At least 4 points should be taken away from Syracuse. Two on the phantom lane violation, and another two on apparently being unable to see a ball clearly go off Syracuse when no UNCA player was even close to it.

                        Edit: And another one for a missed goaltending in the first half. There's six points.

                          The lane violation call was legit. A player who was not on the lane when the FT was taken came inside the three point line and/or in front of the foul line extended before the ball hit the rim, which is allowed in the NBA but not in college.

                          (Also: the out of bounds off of Syracuse is hypothesized as one of "those" calls where the officials don't want to call a foul, but they also don't want the other team to benefit from marginally illegal conduct, so the make the "incorrect" out-of-bounds call.)

                          This is all second-hand info, I followed the game but didn't watch it.

                            Turns out the lane violation was right, but you don't use one of those "make-up" wrong calls in the situation of the out of bounds call.

                            Good to see UNCA coach Eddie Beidenbach not backing down.
                            First comments: "I thought there was a cooling-off period. There's not enough time to cool off after this one."
                            When asked if they should keep officiating crews together, Beidenbach: "I think they should always keep the good ones together."
                            Then he reiterated "When is the cooling-off period? August?"
                            My favorite is: "Syracuse is better than Asheville. Tonight, Asheville was better than Syracuse."

                            And of course Jim Boeheim, upon hearing that last quote responds "That's what they make scoreboards for."
                            And when asked if luck had a part to do with it: "I don't think luck had anything to do with this game. And I think the better team won."

                            Good job Jim, way to trash talk that 16 seed that you needed help from the refs to beat.

                              I still wonder why Fab Melo was ineligible in December, eligible for the first ten weeks of 2012, and then ineligible again for the tournament.
