Glaring disparities in Madison, Wi foul enforcement.
« on: March 13, 2015, 11:47:46 AM »
I know this topic has been beat to death, but I get so tired of watching Wisconsin get away with muggings with no foul calls.    I don't like the Wolverines either, but the officiating is forcing me to root for them.
The whole 'Wisconsin doesn't foul' mantra is ingrained in B1G refs.   It ends up costing Wiscy in the tourney when a game is called even and the screaming Grinch's pouts are ineffective.   
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I got really confused, as I was sure you'd be someone who at least glanced at the politics board.

Then I read your post. and re-read the title.

Nice.

Its one of those things that just doesn't pass the eye test.  You go to the stats and they are #1 in fouls called in the country by a large margin, and then you watch a game and can't believe it.  That mantra is ingrained and by sticking their hands straight up constantly, they are allowed to get away with a lot.

40 minutes.   5 fouls.   Not for a player.   For the entire team combined.
