Anonymous said...: agree on game taking forever. That 2nd period felt like it lasted 2 hours. I know it didn't, but man that was felt long.; Sunday, February 20, 2011 at 11:39:00 AM MST

dggoddard said...: It was debated on ESPN's Around the Horn. They debated to blame Genoe or credit Makowski.

I heard it was on Pardon the Interuption as well.

I'll keep looking for links, but if you find it first, post the links here.; Monday, February 21, 2011 at 3:57:00 PM MST
