  • was this filmed with a Potato??

  • That was buffalo Wild Wings .

  • What calculator did you record this with?

  • NCAA Tournament Game? must be a division 1 game Failure/ No one cares

  • basketball suck

  • Which pixel is the player?

  • you know, this guy's name is officiallyawful, and this video is OFFICIALLY AWFUL! what a coincidence! am I the only one who noticed this???

  • What this Idiot narrator doesnt understand is that reffing an NCAA tournament game is a huge stress on the human body. TERRIBLE CALLS ARE NOT MADE ON ONE OR TWO CALLS. STOP BLAMING OTHER PEOPLE FOR YOUR FAILURES. If i was officiating that game i might have called the same thing, I DEPENDS ON EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED BEFORE YOU TELL EVERYONE THAT THIS REF "THREW THE GAME"

    STOP BLAMING ANOTHER PERSON FOR NOT WORKING HARDER THAN THE OTHER TEAM

  • obviously the guy pushed the guy in white to the ground.... and the narrator thinks thats alright? if this was the first time the player threw elbows... he shouldnt of got kicked out.... if he got caught doing it all game i totally agree with kicking his ass out

  • @AT25redneckin Actually throwing elbows... even if you do not connect... can and will get you ejected. But I cannot tell on this crappy video if that is even what happens. You don't get a warning. That rule was changed and went into place 1 to 3 years ago. I agree with you otherwise.

  • lol, NCAA?... what is this?- Division 5 !- lol

  • The guy elbowed the living shit out if him.

  • great video! I fully understood the concept and had the video to back it up. There also could have been no prior incidents to get that player ejected..thank you

  • Your son who threw the elbow probably came home and said he was just boxing out. Of course you believed him. Do you know when a teenager is lying? His mouth is moving.

  • Um first you must be a fan of the team, the player is your son, or you are the coach of the team. Second. You are right about the ejection being uncalled for. Too bad I can't say anything else because the video quality sucks.

  • no one cares about ur fucking 4 year olds basketball game

  • WTH???

  • You're absolutely right. Instead of making sure he gets the call right, the official should always go with his initial reaction, even if it is clearly incorrect. Everyone will be happy that he stuck to his guns, despite being wrong, and we will all collect flowers and sunshine. Good call. Oh yeah -- intentionally throwing an elbow shouldn't count either, unless of course, it's thrown against the team you placed a bet on.

  • sounds like a hater to me

  • Two players from the same team that possess the ball at the same time, and then one of them takes a step while holding the ball results in a traveling violation. Maybe you need to read a rule book before posting videos about "refs throwing games". People like you are going to make in impossible within 10 years to have sports like this because there will be nobody left to officiate games. If there was any bad call, it was the mistaken signal of jump ball... that's all.

  • this looks like a high school game, not an NCAA tournament game

  • @lenardisag I think it's division 3 not sure. How ever if you look at the mat behind the hoop their is an NCAA logo on it.

  • weeeee have a jump ball NOPE, changed mah mind... TRAVEL

  • can't assess this video without background, maybe there had been rough fouls all night, prior technicals, etc. way to make a shitty video

  • thumbs up if u clicked on this video thinking a squerrel would pop up

  • for all we know from this video, the dude that fell got elbowed in the eyeball....intentionally...... so i dont know what the fuck this is trying to prove

  • if they were a good team they never wouldve gotten themselves in a situiation for the game to be close

  • the only thing officiallyawful is your voice and logic...

  • Were you making out with your mic when you made this?

  • Apparently the refs took over the game in 30 seconds. They are fast!

  • bc he elbowed hiz head intentionally

  • I like how theres no game audio...the ejection could have been caused by a racial slurr or other offensive phrase. I also like how we have no background information. How do we know that the player hadn't committed flagarants all game, or gotten a technical earlier in the game? That would give causation for ejection. Also, the quality in this video is not good enough to evaluate. I can't see the hand signals the refs are making to judge their call. This is a pointless rant. Get a life.

  • I don't know if it was an intentional foul or not, or whether an ejection was warranted. The video is so blurry we can only rely on the narrator's opinion, which I don't trust very much here.

  • great call by the referee

  • to throw a game don't you have to be playing in it?

    these refs didnt throw anything --- those are just 2 bad calls.

  • one game got called because i smashed a kids head into the ground, fourtantly i didnt get suspended for a couple of games

  • Cry moar.

  • stupid narration and certainly isn't refs throwing the game. That would be numerous penalties for no reason over the entire game. This was a single call...and poor narration (at best)

  • The person who posted this video is a fucking baby. That is all.

  • let's not give this game enough credit by calling it an NCAA tournament game. Division 8 maybe but

  • please be more creepy sounding. also, get closer to the mic as you speak.

  • waaaaaaahhhhh

  • umm...that was not a box out, look at the arms, that was definitely a push and it was intentional...

  • This cheeto eating, porn obsessed virgin of a narrator is annoying

  • trollface.jpg

  • No...a boxout is a boxout...that was intentionally knocking another player down to do harm to them, the referees did NOT take over the game, they were calling it correctly...and whether that particular player, we'll dub him, "Sir Elbowsalot," is the best player on that team is a matter of opinion entirely...you're just looking for something to complain about. You obviously have no clue about the rules of basketball.

  • Poor narrator. Just kidding, faggot.

  • Hahaha. What a bitter bitch of a fan.

  • wow. gay. fuck those refs

  • @scoreboard24 fuck em for what, doing their job? watch the damn video.

  • I rlly doubt this is a ncaa tourney game... this is a high school game cuz da gym wud not be that small. If ur makin this much of a deal over a high school game... ur pitiful

  • was the players fault

  • what a cock: @ both of you

  • Worst announcer ever.

  • I think I could understand this video better if the guy who uploaded it would have held the radio shack microphone a little closer to his mouth.

  • the ref can change a call, the two players were fighting for the ball for a second, that's not long enough for a jump ball and if you look at it the guy did travel so first of all it's the right call second that wasn't a box out that was a forearm push on the baseline. So refs actually did a good job....

  • no one has the right to complain about reffing unless they have done it themselves and experienced it.

  • omg, can you please whine some more?

  • just cause the best player gets ejected doesnt mean they still cant win...basketball is about teamwork not ballhog...

  • who gives a flying fuck

  • Thats not NCAA thats deff high school my gym looks the same.

  • could be a div. 2 or 3 gym...pretty much the size of High school gyms

  • What tournament game is this? This looks like a high school game at best?

  • you sound like a faggot

  • Cry harder I'm pretty sure my stock in Kleenex just went up a nickle due to your lopsided rant of your team losing unfairly

  • Booo Hoooo my team lost....................fag

  • GREAT COMMENTARY

  • Looks like an elbow or a punch was thrown.

  • fuck if that is the best player, must be a prety shit team. I mean if he is stupid enough to pull a move like that. He deserved to be given an intentional foul, dunno about ejection...however i dont know what happened in the rest of the game either.

  • theres a reason why these are college refs for sub-par teams.

  • This guy sounds like Bill Murray's character, Carl Spackler, in Caddyshack.

    IT"S IN THE HOLE!!

  • I guess elbows are legal now according to the Douche Bag narrorator

  • @mckerob I didn't see any unnecessary contact. Boxing out is completely legal sir.

  • @mckerob they are as long as you bump the other guy. which clearly was the case here. this aint chess!

  • Someone sure is butthurt over nothing.

  • uhhhh wtf happened besides this gay guy talking over the video?

  • turn your monitor on then.....

  • Your such a dork. Yeah, always blame it on the refs. Ejection was warranted. Best player or not, it was warranted. So if it was an end-of-the-bench player it would have been ok? How about some of the blame on the player for making a stupid move like that? Sometimes a call is made at a critical time. If that ej is in the first few minutes of the game, not as big a stink is made. Still, its warranted. And it was a travel, watch it again. Changed his mind. You want them to "get it right"...right?

  • The ref has the right to change his call if he feels it is the right thing to do. just like other refs can change calls if they have a better view.

  • this is like the D2 ncaa tourney probably. you cant really see the whole place obviously but it looks like theres too many people there for it to be high school

  • give this vid a piss poor rating. first off this is not ncaa. secondly this video is all accusation and really no proof. if you look i do see a player go flying as if he was pushed by the player who gets ejected. dumb video, dont bother.

  • this isn't an NCAA tourney game.. it looks like a High School game..

  • yeah, i think he got ejected for that elbow he threw to the guy running the baseline...u sound bitter

  • Clearly he got run for the giant bow he threw that knocked him on his ass. You are a thief of intelligence.

  • a ref can change his decision any time before he/she has given the ball 2 the player 2 inbound

  • freakin some reff's are so gay. I feel for you man, I have so footage of stuff just like this.

  • actually the ref can change their decision well kinda, if one ref makes a call the other ref can over rule that ref if he is closer and saw something different but it hardly ever happens

  • those refs suck ass and once they call a call they cant change it

  • a ref cant throw a game away, a whole team does. suck it up. this is a gay video

  • Yeah, you havd to know what you're seeing in able to interpret it properly.

  • actually yeah they can, it's not that hard.

  • they could help a team lose, but a team could win earlier. team sports are won by teams and lost by teams. not by 1 player or a ref/ ump

  • in most sports that's true, but in basketball it's not. an official can decide who wins or loses a game if they want to. do you think Tim Donaghy would have placed bets on teams if he wasn't sure he could decide the outcome.

  • well ya i see what you mean, but from a college athlete, I know that if you want to be the best you can be, you cant blame a game on a ref, you blame it on yourself, win or lose. Yes, if he wasnt sure, he could give a team a call, but the other team could win the game earlier right?

  • this was gay

  • Your grainy, out of focus home video and unbiased and thoughtful analysis are proof enough for me.

    Your viewpoint 80 feet away from the play, through multiple players, is CLEARLY far superior to that of the referees on the floor.

    Truly these refs must have seen you in the crowd and decided to punish you and you alone.

  • The refs obviously look like they got paid

  • this is stupid

  • shutup

  • This is not the NCAA Tournament.

  • The NCAA has many tournaments other than the one typically referred to as March Madness. There are many divisions and subdivisions in the NCAA. Get your facts straight.

  • yeah, but I think he's trying to say that this isn't THE NCAA Tourney, like, the big one, like, the one that really counts

  • i cant even see what happened.. the refs were right there

  • He has a better view then you do/// probably talks better too.

  • Sour Grapes

  • i hate refs that dont call anything i had a game once the kid elbowed me when i was comin off the screen and the refs saw it directly and didnt call crap

  • who cares

  • hahaha for real

  • no one cres about u and never will

  • i had a kid knock me to the floor on a jump shot once

  • Who cares? That's basketball.

  • thats right bitch

  • This is the problem with Basketball. The officials have too much control of the game.

  • At the 22-23 second mark a player on the white team takes a pretty good elbow. Looks like the ref made a good DQ call.

  • nope!! change my mind!!

  • A team can't be just one player so u can't blame the refs for your team losing the game

  • if kobe was thrown out..the lakers are in trouble...if lebron is thrown out, the cavs are in trouble...get it??

  • 1 player does mean the difference between 20 to 4 points

  • who cares about these teams anyway, they suck

  • Cry me a river timerlake

  • that wasnt a box out he shoved his elbow into the guys chest and u c bc that guys falls on the ground

  • doesnt matter, that isnt an automatic ejection, just a flagrant

  • yeah it is if the game was intense like that they prob gave everyone a warning

  • soulja boy rocks my socks

  • i also dont think he signaled jumpball he put his hands up as his signal or mechanic to stop the clock although this should be done with one hand looks like his hand are open not closed with thumbs up.

  • you are nuts if you think that is a boxout

  • you cannot tell what is going on but it looked like both players tussling

  • How do you change a jump ball to a walk? Did Tim Donaghey ref this game before he got arrested?

  • Next time say:

    Get off your kness ref

    Your *blowing* the game

    lol i said it and got kicked out...

  • LOLAOSLDALSLDASOLLOLOLLLLL!L You're so original. Not at all actually.

  • lol thisone guy kept sayin it at a footbal game bu he was never kicked out.

  • Hey DaRealRudeBoy......I think your comment....is pretty fuckin' hilarious!

  • damn refs. probebly betted on the game.

  • FUCK YOU.... they look like high school players this shit can't be taken seriously and neither can your judgement on how bad referees are i'm glad the fucker got ejected i hope your team lost it because of that.

  • who cares

  • right threw elbow...good call but i do not understand the jump ball turned travel

  • Good question, when the held ball was called, one player was moving his feet without dribbling. That will be a travel.

  • Good call Ref, anytime a kid throws an elbow, he's gone, end of discussion!

  • well the ref that threw the ejection was too far to actually see if there was an elbow in the face like zan calls it, still refs do call whatever they feel like especially in europe , basicly u play streetball and the only fouls that get called are the ones that u dont do! i just came from a game and the 4 fouls i got in the game were completly imaginary , every call i got was when i didnt even touch the player, but the ref wasnt for the other team he was just dumb!

  • zan71789, youre right

  • Wow. The creator of this video is a blatant homer. The jump ball call, is wrong. I will admit that. But the ejection was because the player ELBOWED the other player in the face on purpose. Watch it closely and carefully before you try to act like I don't know my stuff.

  • Nice job, officiallyawful. You found classic Tim Donaghy college reffing games from the archives!

  • This vid sucks

  • what r u talkin about?

  • Yet another example of why basketball officiating is the second worst (to football). Part-time officials can't be full time professionals.

    Calls like this make you wonder if someone's on the take.

  • Perhaps you should give it a go and show the officials the real way to do things.

  • Doing better than those guys is easy.

  • Basketball officiating is a lot worse than football.

  • this guy is like ray finkle in ace ventura. laces out!!!! lol

  • I bet them refs are from Oregon

  • seems like the game i had earlier tonight...

  • typical basketball!

    blame the ref!

    everone is mad!

  • The first call was a travel...both guys involved are on the same team.

  • The ejection was warranted; but, I agree that the first call should have been a jump ball. It's a tough job. If you can do better, join your local association and start your career. The sport needs dedicated people who love the game to become officials. It's rewarding and lots of fun. You will learn the rules and see the game from a completely different perspective.

  • you should be a car salesman...

  • You think so? Maybe I am selling being an official. Have you thought about officiating basketball?

  • I love officiating. It's the best thing out there.

    I couldn't wait until I was 18 to join my local association. I've been having an awesome time this past year officiating

  • tim donaghy

  • the game is never over

  • It is when the time runs out.

  • wow bad refs are sooooo bad

  • thats y refs are haterz

  • haha unlucky

  • sand20man, a "box-out" is when you (the defender) get in front of the other player and use your butt to push them away from the basket. This is legal, and in no way an intentional foul. I guess the refs didn't exactly see it that way.

  • Both refs had the same call. it's hard to see all the contact from this video but if they both had the same thing they probably got it right.

  • umm you can box out on offense to genius

  • And? I was replying to someone who was talking about a defender.

    Also, it's spelled "too".

  • uh oh the grammar police!

  • wow... if you are trying to correct someone...don't write something wrong too. it's spelt "too"....not spelled too...

  • Wow! You are a douchebag! You attempt to correct someone else on their spelling but you post this, "It's spelt too". LOL @ you, fuckface. What exactly does "spelt" mean? Oh wait, it isn't a real word... Nevermind.

  • you are a moron. spelt is a word you fucking retard. it's the past tense verb of the word spell. wow you are a dumbass. maybe you should look it up in the dictionary haha wow

  • Comment removed

  • haha spelt is a word their boy genious...you've got this wonderful thing called then internet at your disposal why don't you look it up

  • you mean "word there boy genius" dumbass
