Grown men playing a child's game take it about as seriously as they should. Perish the thought.

That said, it was very clearly a flagrant foul.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

The commentators were horrible.  Bogans "held him up" in a headlock after the play for Pete's sake!

i thought the announcers said it SHOULD be a flagrant, but that Bogans was trying to make it look nicer than it was by holding him up. they were surprised it was not a flagrant.

Yes this was the case. I was amazed at how PRO celtic the announcers were that night. A lot of the calls, the announcers were saying were terrible calls in our favor and thats something I feel like we celtics dont see (or hear) very often on national TV.

Regardless, that should have clearly been a flagrant one, no attempt on the ball whatsoever. Ive never seen officials review the play and DOWNGRADE the call. Absurd.
