Ausmus ejected then covers home plate; NBA referees once again under scrutiny

Outside of the NFL season, Monday night is usually a calm day in sports. A day in which Evan and Troy recap the weekend sports, but as they hosted their show two big stories broke. Another Major League Baseball fiasco, and another missed call in the NBA.

Detroit Tigers Brad Ausmus was upset with the strike zone, so he decided to argue with home plate umpire Doug Eddings. As Ausmus argued, Eddings had enough and tossed the skipper out of the game. On his way back to the dugout, Ausmus promptly removed his cap, and then followed by taking off his hoodie and covering home plate. It might not be as classic as some of the MLB manager ejections, but this one might squeek into the top 10 at some point. What are your favorite manager meltdowns?

On a more serious note, the NBA Western Conference Finals are underway. The Oklahoma City Thunder traveled to Golden State, and took back home court advantage with a game one victory. NBA referees have not had the best post-season, and last night added some fuel to the fire. With the Thunder up by three and 17 seconds left, Russell Westbrook broke the timeline and wanted to call a timeout. Before calling the timeout, he clearly traveled but no call was made and the timeout was granted. Could Golden State have tied the game on the ensuing possession? The way Stephen Curry was heaving up three pointers, who knows. As the Thunder take a 1-0 advantage in the series, the question has to be asked "How can the best referees, in the game, miss such an easy call?" Listen in and call the show with your thoughts.
