Comments on: Akron blows out St. Francis http://www.ohiomm.com/blogs/zips/2006/12/akron-blows-out-st-francis/ A Zips perspective from a University of Akron student, fan and sports journalist.

There is certainly nothing wrong with playing tough defense. However, when you have a player going coast to coast with 30 seconds left, it's disrespectful. Tim Carroll is a good kid from what I hear. It's just something Dambrot should fix, especially before MAC play begins when you might see a team more than once a season.

No one plays D in All-Star games. Thats why the score is always 147-140 and the last 3 minutes of the game is just a dunk contest.

Those kids ride the pine whole whole night. When they finally get in the game, let em play. STFU didn't pull up, they were still trying. People bitch too much about "running the score up" If a team can't stop another teams subs, then tough luck. There is a reason why you lose by 35 a night. there was nothing bush league about it.

Flashs hit a couple of 3's too which would of put us only winning 18 or so, and coach would of had a cow with that one, give me a flipping break, rasor.

On another note, you can't look at the number of fouls of one team vs. another as indicative of the officiating. We wouldn't want the officials to go looking for calss just to balance them out!

Let the back-ups have some fun. If coach would put them in earlier, they might not do that. That comment was definitely not needed. Give me a break "bush league". Let the back-ups have some fun.

How do YOU expect the reserves to play? We may have been up by 30, but when the reserves get an opportunity to play, they have to play their butt off. You expect them to just go in there and coast? And then expect more minutes? How are they supposed to prove themselves and earn more minutes when they go in there and play like a reserve. They HAVE to go in there and play like LeBron James! Your playing time is based on performance. PERIOD. I diagree with your bush league comment. How do YOU expect the reserves to play?
