College Hoops 2017. Hoosier Daddy? Wildcat strike? The Butler did it?

That tourney is awful (the first game wasnt even at Barclay Center it was at LIU cause that makes sense) and the organizers wanted a very "playground" style atmosphere which lead to a lot of jaw jacking. First Mason got tossed then Bama (right after the 4 free throws and a 3 pointer to cut it to 7) decided they wanted to look like morons so their whole bench gets ejected for coming on the floor for no reason. Then Ingram (who started the brawl) fouls out the next play and another guy gets hurt. The Gophers played Mercy Rule basketball (think Hoosiers...4 passes before a shot only it was more like 8 passes) the rest of the way which allowed Bama to get back in it.

It was flipping bizarre...

NBA has a rule where a player who has fouled out can remain in the game if his team has no replacements. Any fouls he commits thereafter are technical fouls in addition to personal fouls.

Lakers apparently utilized it a couple years ago.

That is a smart rule...honestly I think it would have made things worse in this case. The Gophers would have thrown the ball inside or drove the lane every play looking for the technical. Guaranteed tempers would have flared up at some point. Pitino was smart to just basically play 4 corners and let the clock run. At any point they could have run it up.

College does not have that, they said that college can be down to ONE player, and unless the ref thinks the game outcome can be changed, only THEN does the one-player team continue the game, otherwise it's a forfeit.

I totally stole that from Deadspin. (OK, maybe I phrased it better.)

Didn't the South want the slaves to count 1:1, while the North was against that due to the overwhelming advantage that would give the South in the House?

AL would have preferred to have all 5 players, too. In each case 3/5 is a compromise they shouldn't complain about.

The tragedy of the Constitution isn't that slaves counted for 3/5. It's that THEY WERE F-CKING SLAVES.

20/20 hindsight is always correct. In 1787, slavery was accepted, women couldn't vote, Catholics could not hold elective office in a number of states, Indians were treated worse than dogs, gays were persecuted, indentured servants were everywhere, rising above your birth economic or social cast was almost unheard of. Marriage happened in the early-mid teen years. The lash was a form of discipline. Hangings were accepted.

That's who we were. Wishing it wasn't isn't going to change the past.

Understanding the time and the place, as JFK put it, helps you view the situation through their eyes, not the rose colored glasses of the current generation.

What you are saying is entirely correct and utterly irrelevant.
