45. I'll give you "Not over it"
From the Deseret News: House Passes Resolution Honoring Stockton
http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/0,1249,590040763,00.html

snipped:

WASHINGTON — The U.S. House of Representatives managed to unanimously agree on something Tuesday: Retired Utah Jazz star John Stockton is a role model on and off the basketball court — and it officially offered him the nation's thanks.
It passed, by a unanimous voice vote, a resolution by Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, that not only thanked Stockton but listed his many accomplishments — and it gave House members a chance to sing his praises. Some even told the world from the House floor that referees robbed the Jazz and Stockton of an NBA title.

"...Coble also said a notorious no-foul call involving Jazz player Bryon Russell and the Chicago Bulls' Michael Jordan in the NBA Finals likely cost Stockton and the Jazz a championship. Coble said "many Jazz fans, including yours truly," believe a push-off foul should have been called against Jordan.
Davis, from Illinois, jokingly offered an explanation: "The Bulls were moving so fast that the referee just couldn't see what was happening."

*cough* BULLSHIT *cough*

:)
