    If you're a teacher, especially in Philly, it's a law to watch this show and be absolutely in love with it. This being my wife. Also, from everything she's ever told me the way things play out in real life aren't far off from the show, if anything it's toned down in tv haha. But yeah I like it. And the principal lady isn't a bad comedian either!

    It's wickedly funny and bitingly realistic, and it's truly "of the moment". It's a must-view - move it up over the rest of whatever "list" you have. Short funny shows - it's not hard to watch or anything. We can finish "The Last Kingdom" a little later.

    Such bullshit. It was like the refs were trying to make up for tossing Hurley.

    Nice. Last night wasn't that funny but hit home because my aunt ran an after school dance club when she taught 1st/K in North Philly.

    I watched some of that one and another one where the teacher was trying to replace a light bulb but ended up accidentally turning the power and ac off for the whole school while the one maintenance guy was gone fishing. lol

    the jump ball (possession arrow) tie up and offensive foul were iffy, but if your guy knocks down the one and one, nova wins. other than that miss, I was damned impressed by nova’s FF shooting.

    Yeah, yeah, I know. My buddy texted me the same thing about the foul shot. But iffy is a stretch. Those calls were questionable.

    They're actually one of the best foul shooting teams of all time.

    few comments on the nova/uconn game:

    1 - First Danny Hurley is unhinged. Saw him a lot in person when he was in the A10 at Rhode Island. He goes from 0-100 in about a second. 
    He ain't all there.

    2 - Last play was definitely a charge on Gillespie. He stumbled and was out of control and barreled into Cole. Made up for the terrible call before that when they called a foul on UConn when Gillespie drove and landed on the ground even though no one touched him.

    3 -  Held ball was iffy for sure. Usually call a foul there but have seen it go both ways.   Gillespie did kind of just stand there with the ball waiting for a call.  He needs to be more aggressive there.

    4 - I just don't understand coaches who just let the best player catch the ball on the last play.   You have to deny Gillespie the ball there. They got away with it but it's terrible defense by UConn to let him get the ball and run it up the court like that.  Almost as bad as Roy Fuck Williams letting Arch catch the ball in the title game.  dumb coaching.

    4 - UConn back in the Big East is just the correct place for them.  They bring an attitude and a swagger that will be good for the league.

    5 - in closing - fuck nova :smiley:
