    Did anyone else think the ending of the Colorado @ Arizona game was a bit of homerism (or downright highway robbery) because of the officials' decision? How can you overturn that call?

    Supposedly, Sean Miller even told Phelps he thought it was good.

    Saw that shot as well as the super slo-mo they showed. What discourages me is the conference commish and head of officiating coming out and claiming the call was correct. Don't insult my intelligence. They are asking who we believe, them or our own lying eyes? Admit it was a blown call, apologize to Colorado and move on.

    I believe the proper term is Grand Lar"Chen"eygate.

    Miles was annoying on the broadcast. If you wanna call homerism, call it on him. The floor view from behind made it appear the ball wasn't out of Chen's hand, but the side view clearly showed the opposite. He couldn't/wouldn't even admit that.

    Seeing the title of the thread, I thought to myself, "Oh no, WTF did Dick Cheney fuck up now?

    I LOVE how people just add "gate" to things. It's awesome and not utilized nearly enough.

    Yep, it's pretty much become a gategate.
