    I was going to make a joke about tax dollars at work, but since these are Indiana schools, the citizens would probably wonder why more research money isn't being poured into projects like this.

    Bobby Knight is asking if the study comes in Braille so that the refs themselves can read it.

    it further corrodes the wishful notion that referees can operate on some sort of frictionless plane where the normal human weaknesses don't apply.

    I love you Tommy, but no one believes this. Not every study like this is meant to counterattack some fictional bogeyman.

    I don't need studies like these. If I've learned anything from the greatest sports video game of all time, NBA Jam, it's that we don't need referees to have an entertaining and close basketball game.

    Don't worry, you dough-faced little Bears QB: your 17 INTs on the season may be a little gaudy, but if you stick around the NFL until the age of 40 and do a few Wrangler jeans commercials, you will be revered as rocket-armed royalty. #stevenash
