Not sure where this should be, but it might end up as smack so here goes.
Not to sound sexist but does anybody else notice, not every time, but a lot of the time when there are 3 women refs they either let both teams bang, push and shove a ton, or they call a whole bunch of ticky-tack calls and the game lasts 3 hours and both teams almost foul everybody out?
We were watching the game last night and I thought the refs were horrible both ways, typical for the Big Sky, but we had 3 Griz fans and 2 Bobcat fans and we all thought it was bad.

I would agree with you on this. It seemed alot of the calls the refs were out of position too. calling fouls across court? they need to send all these refs to a ncaa ref seminar!! or get them some thicker glasses!

It's easy to sit and bitch about it. Go get your own damn whistles and give it a try.

I wasn't, didn't mean to, piss about the officiating. I was just wondering if anybody else ever got the feeling when the officials are all women, or men for that matter, the officiating is either no blood no foul, or standing next to someone is a foul.

Simple case of "Not what you know, but you you (b)know".
