That's a no for me. If the long endings bother you, my suggestion is that you tweek the rules of fouls (which I find confusing most of the times anyway!). Intentional fouls generally lead to two shots and the ball, if I'm not wrong. The fouls at the end of the game are intentional. Obviously. Give them the shots and the ball, and the fouls will stop.

That's great, but remember what we just left...250 posts? For the trolls, they can get that in a day.

250 posts...how about Blue Seats, in remembrance of things past.

Herve's obit for GWHoops. I have to admit that it really makes me feel sad. A couple of jerks ruined 21 years of work by Herve. I hope he joins us here.

"1998 - 2019
Yeah, I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge.
The kids are coming up from behind.
I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge to the kids from Long Island and from Northern Virginia.
But I was there.I was there in 1993. 
I was there in the Marvin Center ballroom for the Sweet Sixteen with George Michael reporting live.
I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge to the kids whose footsteps I hear when they get on the decks.
I'm losing my edge to the Internet seekers who can tell me every member of every good GW basketball team from 1997 to 2005.
I'm losing my edge.To all the kids in Madison and Guthridge.
I'm losing my edge to the Whole Foods shoppers in little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties.But I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge, but I was there.
I was there.
But I was there.I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge.
I can hear the footsteps every night on the decks.
But I was there.
I was there in 1995 at the first upset of a #1 in Smith Center history.
I was staking-out a top row bleacher seat with much patience.
I was there when Mike King hit two free throws with no time left on the clock.
I yelled, "Don't miss. You'll never play again."
I was there.
I was the first guy calling for starter's minutes for a freshmen-year Chris Monroe.
I was in the old gold seats.
Everybody thought I was crazy.
We all know.
I was there.
I was there.
I've never been wrong.I used to run a good message board. 
I knew everything before anyone.
I was there when Karl Hobbs leaked his own firing.
I was there when Wilmore air-balled the shot heard around Foggy Bottom.
I woke up happy in Greensboro in 2006.But I'm losing my edge to better-looking people with better ideas and more talent.
And they're actually really, really nice.I'm losing my edge.I heard you have a VHS compilation of every good GW dunk e
