Ancient Eight Goes Bar Hopping

Refereeing is a difficult job, and I’m sure the officials are doing their best, so I never really complain about the way a game is called. But Penn’s fans are not of the same opinion; they were going nuts during last weekend’s game against Harvard.

That’s fine; if you think the officiating is poor, which it certainly was, feel free to boo or whatever. But Quaker fans, really? The referees gave you two extra chances to win—first when they waved off a foul that was whistled before the buzzer, and then when they counted Zack Rosen’s shot that came after the horn sounded in overtime.  And you were booing them? Win or lose, you should’ve carried them off the court like Rudy.

Nobody likes crybabies—especially, the karma police. It will catch up with you tomorrow night.

Pick: Columbia 73, Penn 71

RECORD LAST WEEK: 6-3 (To date: 12-5)
