speaking of CONTROVERSY, did you happen to see Jim the Boehemian get tossed out of the Duke game? of course, xshub could not watch live. So i dragged him, though he also has a cold and isn’t feeling well, to the movies again. We saw Monuments Men. It was ok, it diverted his attention long enough to get out and then see the headline news about him being ejected over the controversial call. We each had a bunch of texts and emails about it, as we exited the theater. I am just glad i managed to haul him to the movies. Some friends invited us over for dinner, and even though they promised that the tv would not be on, he knew he had to be somewhere with his phone off so as to not get texts or be tempted to follow on twitter, so we did dinner and a movie. More date nights in the past month than in the previous six! LOL!

We watched at my sister's home - we were stunned when they threw him out! I do not follow basketball enough to know all the rules regarding fouls, so I will have to defer to others on whether it not it was a good call, but it definitely determined the game! That is always sad when a game could go either way and a call is made by an official that literally ends it.

We were all comiserating with xshub though - I had already told everyone that he couldn't watch in real time and was at a movie.
