Actually... believe it or not he's wrong. WBS is playing in Bridgeport. Syracuse is playing Philly today.

They use lighted nets in one of the junior leagues. I remember around draft time I saw footage of some prospect scoring and the net appeared to have flashing red LED all over the post and crossbar. I thought it was pretty cool.

Lighted nets? I don't get it. What's the point?

That is where the goal is scored... that is where everyone is looking... why not have that be where the red light is.
