I understand where Vinnie is coming from & no, life ain't fair. BUT, this is sports. The reason for having refs in a game is to KEEP IT FAIR! That's all they are supposed to be there to do! It's not just a matter of "what we could have done better?", it also involves what the refs could have done better and how much they did/didn't do to interfere with fairness instead of JUST insuring that fairness.

It's two different things.

I'd love nothing more than for the refs to make the correct call all of the all the time. That would be awesome.  But it's just not my style to complain about refs. It's out of our control, and you can't go back and change it.  That ref who made the charge call doesn't have to be held accountable.  So for me, in my mind I have to find closure in a loss and I can't do that by blaming the refs.

If Stokes was wearing a Kentucky,Duke or UNC jersey the call would have went the other way.
