I don't think the refs were trying to win the game for Tussey. They are just that bad. That's why they are usually doing 4th grade girls games at the YMCA. They are bad there also.

Congrats to Meck. His kids played well. Too bad the fans had to spoil his celebration. The guy that hit the cop should have been tossed earlier in the night for coming onto the floor.

Tussey Mt. Fan, I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you were not at the game. I've watched alot of basketball and that was the most blatant display of cheating on the ref's part I have ever witnessed. I have been a diehard Tussey fan all my life, but it didn't take much last night to notice what was going on. Forbes Road attacked the hoop all night and did not shoot a foul shot until the fourth quarter. Other than the final minute of OT, when Tussey had to foul, the foul total was 28 to 2. There were many terrible calls, but the double dribble call on #32 of Forbes took the cake. Bruno and McClure should not be allowed to officiate another game at any level, including fourth grade girls!! Forbes Road definetely deserved the win, they played 5 on 7 all night. How do you think Tussey crowd would have handled that kind of partiality down at the Forbes barn?? There would have been more than a little scuffle after the game.

FR Vs TM

Btamc...I was just joking around about the hospital part. From what I seen he did have a pretty big mark on his eye, but nothing serious...and yes, it is a shame about the fight, but that was some terrible reffing! And thanks for understanding Forbes Road view of the game hoopstar! I agree that those refs should not be able to ref another game as long as they live! Looking forward to seeing TM up @ Forbes soon so we can have a fair game, and let the best team win!

Some will want to know my opinion. I was there, am a Tussey fan and agree with everyone's take on the refs. It was a shame Forbes fans had to tolerate that. But yet no one needed the display at the end.

Hoopstar, I was at the game. The refs were terrible as I said. Have you ever seen these 2 do a game before? If you have you know they are terrible. They are too dumb to cheat. Why would TM cheat against Forbes and Meck. Why not cheat against Bedford where we get homered everytime we go there.
The terrible officiating still didn't warrant the acts performed by a couple of Forbes fans after the game.

Another scene a huge part of me enjoyed, (right after the final buzzer and a few seconds before any punches), was Randy's reaction. A remake of Jimmy Valvano all over again, rushing the court, looking for someone to hug. Win or lose that's what HS sports is all about.

I wish the parents and fans would just try to enjoy HS sports and not re-live their sports dreams through their kids. Meck is a great kid and I'm happy for him. I hate to hear about the happenings that occurred in the dome.

I know I'm biased since I'm from the Road, but Bailey calls the shots when it comes to officials at Tussey. How many times have we heard him yell "You'll never do another game here. You're terrible!" I purposely left out the expletives.
