Hi my name is Sandtiger and I am a basketball addict. It's 10 AM and I am watching the D3 Women's Basketball National Championship between two teams I have no affiliation with at all, Smith (MA) and NYU.
Anyone else find themselves watching college basketball for no reason other than it's a much purer sport than the NBA?

I watch some random games, but I’m picky about which ones I watch. I will watch the end of a close game if I’m flipping through the channels and see a 1 point game with 2 minutes left. However, I won’t just watch two random teams for all 40 minutes. Like you, I would rather watch D3 games than NBA. The NBA is just not basketball to me anymore. The overpaid and over egos just make it hard for me to watch. The refs pamper the superstars and let them do whatever they want and rarely call much against them. I would love to see the refs call a game like they did in the 70s in the NBA. Guys like Lebron James wouldn’t be able to get away with all the junk he does now. Hell, I’d love officiate an NBA game today because traveling would be called every other play. Hand checks would foul out anyone that plays lazy defense but loves to hold their guy. Don’t get me wrong, I understand these guys have incredible talent and skills, but what they play now is not basketball to me. Maybe some enjoy it. But some enjoy the WWE and that’s not wrestling either.

When I was single and I did not have any kids I would watch at least 4 college football games every Saturday. So I had a problem with college football.
