Without a doubt, that's my memory of it....it's as if time slowed to a crawl. Fantastic. PBJ

I've seen the replay 30 times already....and EVERY SINGLE TIME I pump my fists and do a "Danny Manning"-you-have-to-believe-double-fist-squeeze/shake (KU fans know the image, it is iconic)....

so giddy....it feels better than I could ever imagine

there were 3 huge plays at the end:

Collins with steal and 3 pointer
Arthur with a beautiful turn-around jumper to cut it to 2
Chalmers with the shot for the ages

Chalmers shot will be the greatest in KU history...as it should. But in the game, Collins' 3 was more important. He misses that, Memphis rebounds and things could have been much different. Instead he cuts the lead down to 4 and gives us hope, a chance, new life. Collins' 3 begat Chalmers 3. Both huge.

Funny thing is, when he shot it, knowing the size of the Memphis guards, I thought it was blocked. It just looked short to me for some reason, and then it swished and I fell on the floor and started to sob a little.

I think I pissed my pants, and blamed it on "spilled my beer..." :shrug:



I'm just sayin'...... :shrug:





:p

I had to listen on the radio...the play by play guy was counting down and his co-announcer kept saying "gotta foul" the all I heard was "Chalmers with the ball...a shot for 3......"and it was like eternity waiting for the call...then I think there might have been some people looking at me like I was in a fist fight with a bee...

They replayed the call this morning on Mike and Mike. Don't know the play by play guy but the color guy was a guy who should know about fouling in that situation: John Thompson III

John Thompson and Kevin Harlan as the play by play...Thompson was saying gotta foul

Memphis screwed themselves. No way UNC, Duke, UCLA, Louisville or even Davidson blow that lead. The pushing of the ball up the floor with like 20 seconds left when if they had just passed the ball and kept it out of Kansas' hands for 3 more seconds, chalmers doesn't even get the opportunity to tie.

I'm not diminishing the championship - it was a great shot, a magnificent team effort and KU didn't quit - those are the marks of a true champion. Not selfish play, bad coaching\game management and the aforementioned fast break - which in my mind only a complete imbecile would have attempted. Memphis certainly deserved to lose.

"90% of the game is half mental." - John Madden.

I got screwed out of this.

I'm watching this game on march madness on demand (streaming video via computer) I didn't realize there was a delay. On my computer there were 10 seconds left with rose shooting, then a customer calls--and says dammit ku just hit a 3.

I laughed at him much and then charged him full price.

Frigging memphis prick.

Kansas' defense against Davidson in the last 16 seconds of that game, and Kansas' offense in the final seconds of this game defines this team.

After the game Chalmers said he had an open look.... really? LMAO

man that was scary.

I cried. I admit it. But the craziest thing is that as soon as it happened the first thing that came to my mind was to start yelling "oh the babies" (from the Borat movie when he's with the frat guys in the rv). So, I did. It was a thing of beauty. This is just freakin' awesome!!!

We recorded the game since it ran so late on the east coast. Went to bed at halftime and found out about the OT. My tape shut off at the 63rd free throw point for Memphis!

I'm sure I'll see it 100 times on ESPN today.

Go JayHawks!
