| 253.1 | Rules are part of the Playoffs too | MILKWY::CRUZ | | Mon May 19 1997 13:53 | 11 |
| I don't know if that really was the difference. But, I'm glad the
league followed the rules. Baseball got themselves in a hot one with
the Roberto Alomar issue. I believe that the series itself was ugly.
The refs allowed toooooo much contact. Usually things get out of hand
when too much contact is allowed. Especially in series when players
are seeing each other almost every other night. Charlie Ward will be
accused but Charles Oakley is mean guy. Zo made a fast break basket
yesterday and then went after the guy. Why??? The ref should have
give him a "T" right there and stop all the non sense.

| Couldn't have happened to a nicer team. There's no telling it made a
difference though. Miami wasn't at full strength either. Kathy Petrie
must be on cloud 9 right now.

| I almost put my foot thru the TV yesterday when Gumbel asked Stern
those questions.

The real questions are:
1. Is it a good rule to have? (Are you in favor of it?)
and
2. If you have rules should they be enforced consistently?
(at least on a rule by rule basis).
My opinions are 1) it is a good rule, and 2) it should always
be enforced irreguardless of the intensity of the altercation.
Did it have an impact - of course, if nothing else then
psychologically. But that discussion is not pertainent to the
issue of whether rules should be enforced.

| 253.5 | this is why the NBA is a level above MLB | PHXS01::HEISER | Maranatha! | Tue May 20 1997 14:12 | 3 |
| Re: -1
I agree 100%.

| 253.6 | MLB is looking up to the NBA | MILKWY::CRUZ | | Fri May 23 1997 12:28 | 5 |
| Yes, the NBA is ahead of MLB. I was very happy when the judge favor
the NBA in his decision against the players association. I know they
need to represent the players but that for me was going too far.
