As long as Dook has a comfortable lead, there is no need to give them calls. Actually keeping the score close is very important. The teams that are behind get the 50/50s. Can’t let those viewers change the channel. Not delivering ratings is not an option in a made for TV tournament.

So as this starts to lean toward a blowout on prime time, whatchagonna go to next?

Why wouldn’t I be on a TN board? Why are there Dook and UNC fans in here?

“It’s all decided”? Did I say that? Or did I say that there are obvious biases and favoritism?

You said clearly "refs will make sure Duke wins" and now you want to weasel away as Duke starts to dominate Arky.

You're just a "ref whiner."

That point makes no sense. Dook doesn’t need the assist when they’re out talenting Arkansas.

Dook fans don’t have to deal with bad officiating.

Keep your eye on the prize. The Final Four ratings bonanza of K versus UNC.

Again, you were saying they "needed to keep the game close....."

It ain't looking close, is it?

You said boosters and Nike is the biggest name in the game 🤷‍♂️

I said “booster help” as a nice way to refer to Sam Gilbert buying players, giving them cars and paying for their girlfriends’ abortions haha. Nothing at Oregon is on a Papa G scale

Hmmm. Is Chattanooga in the Atlanta AND Nashville market as it's about equidistant from both? Is Knoxville in the Nashville market?

For sports, yes Chattanooga is in the Atlanta market, you will see Falcons games there as a rule on the NFC game of the week. Knoxville is also in the Nashville market for sports. They will see Titans games.

However if you consult a map, Waco is much closer Dallas and Fort Worth than any of those cities are to each other. Waco is closer to Dallas-Fort Worth than Knoxville and Chattanooga are with each other.

The fact is that Waco is not in the Dallas/Ft. Worth media market. He was just making crap up to try to support his original incorrect statement.

I know. He claims to know TX. It's a freaking hour and a half to Dallas from Waco, just like ATL and Nashville from Chattanooga...... and pretty similar to Knoxville and Nashville.

I've grown accustomed to him being FOS at this point.

They prefer keeping them close. Sometimes one team is garbage and nothing can be done. But it was close until Arkansas’s final 1st half possession.

The NCAA will have lost some advertising dollars once the ratings results are published. The advertisers are going to get something back.

If you’re just now hearing about Sam Gilbert for the first time that’s fine, look him up, but no no one today is cheating on that level. It was also a 16-team tournament and K still has more Final Fours

Zion’s family got like a million dollar home and there’s no telling how much he was paid to attend Duke. John Wooden won 10 championships in 12 Final Four appearances. Coach K has won 5 out of 12 (now 13) appearances. It’s not really close.

Lemme guess, Super Bowls are rigged too? Despite most of them being ugly games.

C'mon, man. Take your L. It's not all rigged, set up, and planned out and you know it.

You really can’t compare different eras. Wooden is clearly one of the greatest coaches of all time. However, only 16 teams were in the tournament back in Wooden’s era.
