Wow, if awful FT shooting Pescarmona missed any one of three late free throws, I was out. Lucky.

How in the world did they manage to pull off those ratings? This is only their second season. They do have 3 or 4 guys who are about 9-10K but it doesn't warrant anything near what they pulled off. That's messed up.

I don't know if it is still like this, but ratings used to always be higher when you play an OT game. It is a "feature" of the ratings.

Some quick hits on tonight's games:

I never noticed my low comparative turnover rate until now. By the way, even Wayne Andrews would guess that a ptb is coming our way.

One point lead after the first. Krinner is burning Wayne Andrews, outscoring him 13-0. I expect plenty more is to come.

Looks like Andrews' experience with the Trojans (http://pickering.ddsbschools.ca/dev/) just doesn't cut it at this level.

well, he just through down a powerful two-handed dunk. amazing!

Dear game engine...

Four fouls in the first 17 minutes on my top big (... continued whining)

I guess I should note that the game engine is being nice to me this week. Simons' opponent managed to foul out with more than 3 minutes left in the first quarter. He is the goon of all goons, though: (748039)

wow and I thought Laviolette was the foul king! I guess not.
