I go to George Mason (everyone's favorite bubble team) and watched them lose on Sunday to Hofstra in the CAA tourney.  The loss sucked, but what was far more disturbing was an incident that occurred near the end of the game.

Hofstra's leading scoring went down in a heap near mid-court, away from the play.  No foul was called, but Mason's head coach did immediately pull Mason's top guard, Tony Skinn, for the rest of the game.  With no immediate video evidence and no call, it seemed odd that the coach pulled Skinn.  Clearly he saw something the refs didn't:

The video was shown about five times on Sportscenter last night/this morning.  Skinn clearly punches the dude squarely in the nuts.  As a result, Mason has suspended Skinn for their first round NCAA tourney game, which ironically, is a kick in the balls of all Mason fans.

Also, don't take after Arizona's Hassan Adams and drink and drive (and get caught).  Not only will you not be allowed to play in the Pac-10 tourney, but the fines suck and some people consider it to be slightly dangerous.
