It’s not baseball — nothing else is. But I love basketball — and college basketball looks a lot more like the game I grew up with than the pro version.

I just saw the end of an overtime thriller — ‘Nova beating BC by 1. I’ve been watching hoops for 40 years, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game before decided by a goaltending call (with 2.3 seconds left).

Usually, the refs swallow their whistles on something like that, but this one was too blatant to let go. A good call … and a great game.
