Stern Continues to Deny Refgate Accusations

NBA commissioner David Stern continues to deny disgraced former ref Tim Donaghy's charges that the refs sometimes do the league's bidding in officiating games.

Says Stern,

"On behalf of my officials, I'd like to tell you that they don't engage in the criminal conduct of which Mr. Donaghy has accused them. Our officials try very hard with complete integrity and honesty to referee perfect games. That they fail in that makes them human but not objects of the kind of ridicule and scorn to which they have been unfairly subjected for the last three days."

in other words, NBA refs don't do fix games...except the ones that do. Like, you know, Stern's fformer employee Mr. Tim Donaghy.
