Can someone who has the video upload it and post to youtube? Not only am I curious to see it, I think it's the kind of thing that could go viral and demonstrate to non-Hoya fans the reasons we are so upset about the circumstances around this "Cinderella upset" Many blogs have picked up this photo: tinyurl.com/3c8le5of what appears to be a blatant foul by UCLA that wasn't called in the waning seconds of the A&M game. I think people would be interested in the Wright/Curry video as well. Just a thought

You're just as bad as Hoyahebrew. I thought we had rid ourselves of you after the hanging source debacle of '07. Remember where you went for those 6 months? Go back there.

Go back there. 6 months? no way. that time will come again soon. its called summer hoop tournaments and camps. i may touch base with my following via blackberry though this summer as there seems to be a major uproar when i leave for a month or more

Before this gets hijacked into a completely different discussion that should be taken to a different thread, I think guru's got a good question. I'd like to see something like that as well.

I would like to see a video clip too, but think its unlikely. I don't think a good view was shown at real time and there was no replay (unless I missed it with CBS coverage). I wouldn't have known it happened if Packer didn't say something. Since I don't buy most of what that idiot says, I'm not quite sure the foul even occurred.

Game is over--the officiating was horrendous, but the Hoyas should've still won, and as much of a Chris Wright fan as I am--him shooting 3 FT's isn't like Jon Wallace shooting 3 FT's. If anything--I hope Chris works on his FT stroke the most this offseason. He is too talented to not be at least in 80% range.
If any of you want to see the worst call of the entire tournament--go to the Gonzaga-Davidson game and check out the "Double Dribble Call" against Zags in 2nd Half. That was beyond disgusting and don't think the player (Bouldin) or Few still know what happened.

Good point. I remember seeing it live on CBS and, as I recall, Wright shot from the left wing (the bottom of the screen on TV) and he seemed to be more than a bit jostled by Curry cutting by as he released. It may have been that the refs thought Wright was flopping or looking for a foul and that's why there was no whistle. A pic or video would be nice.

I'm not sure if you want to relive the whole thing, but the game can be replayed on March Madness on Demand.

Look I'm all for moving on - but I'd like to see the clip. Everyone realizes it's not going to change the outcome - and in fact a call there would probably have sparked another round of "Georgetown gets all the calls" since I'm pretty sure Curry had just been whistled for 2 fouls right before it.
But still, I'd like to see what the foul looked like. So if anyone has it, please upload.
Thanks!

No, you're still edited. Why don't you go back in your hole and stay there. On second thought, after looking at the photographic evidence, I change my mind and agree with you. You're a genius, as evidenced by the following: Photo #1 - this photo shows Macklin has already thrown in the towel as he let Curry get closer to the ball because Macklin clearly stopped trying to win. Photo #2 - yet another example of a Hoya player with head down, dejected... Photo #3 - Macklin can't even care enough to hold on to the ball. Jeez. Photo #4 - this photo shows that even the players' parents were beaten down. What a bunch of losers. Photo #5 - Summers is so cocky, so classless, he thinks he can make the shot with his eyes closed. I bet he's thinking about a matchup with UNC. Photo #6 - in sharp contrast to the Georgetown bench, the Davidson players have their heads up, smiles on their faces and intensity in their eyes - clearly showing they wanted to win more than Georgetown. Photo #7 - no, he's not hanging his head, he's smiling that his plan to have the refs call 4 fouls on Hibbert in 10 minutes came to fruition. Photo #8 - this photo shows..., nope, can't do it. This is an awesome photo. mrsixer is an edited. MOD WARNING: If you cannot resist calling other posters derogatory names a posting ban will be in your future.I'll stop as soon as mrsixer stops attacking the character of the players - a clear violation of the board rules for which I have no idea why he is not punished.

The hanging source already informed us about Roy. He declared for the draft last year, and he's been gone since June. He didn't play for us this year.

CAN WE PLEASE STOP. this is getting ridiculous. we lost the game because we played like garbage in the 2nd half. not because of the refs. when did this turn into a su(ck) board where there is nothing but crying about the refs. it's over. move on.
