Well, it's a lot easier to get into UNC than Harvard. Of course, getting to Wharton might be cool, but I'm a realist. Sometimes getting in the UNC program seems far-fetched since I'm not an American and I don't have much work experience.
And the Hornets got humiliated. I didn't watch the game so I'm unsure on what happened...

Originally posted by shortcircuitI'm just a freshman in college in my country. I just started selecting the schools I'm going to apply for when I graduate here. I started to learn GMAT testing and understand how they work. The verbal part sucks. I have no problems with the math one, which is fairly easily so far, but English being my third language makes it sort of hard at the language part. But eh, 2 years and a half left. I just need to get a job this summer and work through college. Long road ahead. 🙂

I hate Andersen. He pisses me off just as much as Varejao!
Dwight Howard gets suspended for Game 6 because of an above the shoulder elbow. By rule, that should have resulted in an immediate ejection, Wonder if the Magic would have won Game 5 without Superman's 24 points and 24 rebounds? (I doubt it)
Lots of cry-babying from Chicago. I still don't understand the criteria for a fragrant 1 (the rules use the word "unnecessary" to describe the "contact" but isn't any foul "unnecessary contact"?) but the idea that Rondo made no attempt at the ball is absurd (people seem to think that real life occurs in slow mo). No commentator has mentioned it, but if Miller's shot goes in, then he has a chance to make a 3-PT play that gives the Bulls the lead with 2.0 seconds left. I'd be curious to hear a rationale why an unintentional foul of that sort should be deemed a flagrant 1 (if any contact to the face is a flagrant 1, we should see about a half dozen a game).

force of the foul. "Look at the blood - it must be a flagrant!" And wouldn't you try anything you
could to get an extra possession with 2 seconds left down by 2? Basketball has become too much
of a game of flops and posturing with the referees. It doesn't seem that long ago that players
were tough enough to get hit and not whine about it and take the foul that was not called.
Originally posted by Traveling AgainOf course, I don't blame them for lobbying for the call DURING the game; heck, Pierce and Doc were trying to get an "in the act of shooting call" on the last possession! I was more referring to the after game comments by Gordon (in particular) and the Bulls' coach and the "we wuz robbed" bloggers.
