[poncholol411]

[YoMoplayer32]

I was

[RealTri4Lyfe]

damn, was ANYONE cheering for duke???

[prelevich]

@RealTri4Lyfe I was!

[Randomchickenshizz]

I was so pissed after this

[prelevich]

@Randomchickenshizz How pissed were you the following year?

[n0rt0nat0r]

Thumbs up if youve been a Butler fan before there trip to the national championship not some butler bandwagon

[prelevich]

@n0rt0nat0r Wow, 3 people! That is some serious number! :P

[n0rt0nat0r]

@prelevich aparently there are a lot of bandwagons

[jaybird2lions]

that was an amazing game, i was there and so glad duke won

[jazzbuffalo1]

I sooooo wanted that last shot to go in. It would've been the best NCAA tournament ending ever.

[Dan4USCTroy]

game is on the line, U know its do or die, U cheer or you CRY. you step in, and give it your best, but the opposite happens, you're defeated and a mess. Just that one shinning moment, that 1 second shot, now you're in tears and your fans distraught. They bow their heads in agony of defeat, well the other team rejoices and shouts we can’t be beat! that 1 moment you’re in so much pain, U tear up, because U just lost the game,you're the BIGGEST LOSER oh what a shame!!

[KyleCP21]

wouldnt have counted anyway, Howard fould the shit out of Singler on that screen

[Mekdod]

@KyleCP21 did they call it? nope. good call, his feet were set. doesnt matter, z fouled the shit out of hayward with a blocking foul after hayward rebounded.

[KyleCP21]

@Mekdod Did the call it? nope Duke National champs..and if you knew the rules, it doesnt matter if his feet were planted dumbass, he leaned into him and pushed his ass down

[Mekdod]

@KyleCP21 yeah, i know. just saying it was a shit call that should have sent hayward to the line and tied it (i think they were in the bonus) dude, you are the ONLY person who has said any crap about leaning. on sports center, espn, everything, they have talked about howards pick and said it was legal. you guys won. please, shut up.

[KyleCP21]

@Mekdod I never heard anyone on ESPN talk about it, all they talked about was the shot..

[Mekdod]

@KyleCP21 you havent watched. they talked about a while after the game and right before butler vs uconn in the national championship (that game SUCKED)

[KyleCP21]

@Mekdod yea it was the worst tournament ever

[bassforlife4]

i was there i thought the shot went in i was near the front row and i started sobbing until i saw the duke players dog piling on eachother .

[coasteys]

who cares it's only college ball

[hitdoctor24]

i really wish this shot had gone in.

1. because duke is a school of fags

and 2. butler made an incredible run, and had they one this game, last night's embarassment wouldn't have been AS bad

[mbrooksslp]

Duke sucks! Butler is gonna beat uconn in the title game tonight!

[hitdoctor24]

@mbrooksslp u sure bout that? lmao

[excelsior27]

@mbrooksslp Sorry....

[MrGchad]

Butler will win 2011 ncaa championship!!!

[excelsior27]

@MrGchad didn't happen.

[KyleCP21]

@MrGchad hahahahhahhahhahahahhahhahahah­hahahahhahaha

[MsRobinDuke]

I was in Indy for the Final 4 last year, and that was an amazing final championship game. Back and forth for 40 minutes. The shot was so close. Duke was King of the Dance for 2010! Its your turn Butler!!!  Go Bulldogs and get your Banner for 2011!

[BassBoyGio]

@TheBirdmanOfToledo im a pats fan and when they lost the SB 2 the giants imagine how badly i cried. Butler has another chance this year though

[obamagtespussy]

duke fans are all fags

[shaybird45]

As a duke fan i almost crapped my pants when that shot was released. I am rooting for butler this year though because if they had been playing anyone but Duke in the national championship i would have been pulling for them last year. But this is the second greatest championship game ever, right behind NC State vs Houston. Had it gone in it is no doubt number one.

[JBproductions20]

Butler all the way this year!!!!!!!!!!

[Skizzler23]

Hell ya they r

[1967mustanggta]

Butler is going to make that shot this year!

[xfiredrvr]

@metzdawg3000 it sure will be nice to see Butler play duke in the championship game again, eh? What? what's that you say?? Duke didn't make the Final Four? Awwww............., Don't cry too hard ;( Go Bulldogs!!

[hunteriscool1122]

duke is gayy butler all da way!

[Disturbedchief16]

Aww FUCK YOU DUKE FANS!!!! All of you are just as self centered as Kansas fans....so goddamn cocky!!! just putting that out there....

[Suburbannite]

was there a pig being decapitated or something?

[ekomokom8613]

i am still sad to this day he missed that shot

[mdbrockm]

this makes me puke every time i think about it

[10n31]

it sounds like a teapot was rooting for duke

[zharthart]

well I guess i can root for indiana st. this year

[butlerfan123]

@TheBirdmanOfToledo dude ik i was crying for 10 straight minutes

[xfiredrvr]

@metzdawg3000 what is this "we" crap? I was there and I didn't see you on the court.

[xfiredrvr]

Duke sucks my balls! Go Dawgs!!

[metzdawg3000]

@xfiredrvr lol don't hate because we beat you twice

[19951pch]

really wish wvu woulda been in this game

[metzdawg3000]

@19951pch it's all good, duke assraped your mountaineers

[paulisawesome3]

Oh my GOD who cares about who had more heart? Two awesome teams played an awesome game and it was awesome. It came down to the last play. Does anyone have any appreciation for a good game anymore?

[baubret]

As a Duke fan since I was born... I'm use to having the world against us. And I wish to congratulate Butler on a well played title game. A bounce here or a call there and it could've went the other way. Just glad to see a great game between 2 great teams... and not to sound like a racist... but when will you ever see that many white guys on a basketball court at one time?

[sanders92493]

Was it even off in time? It looks like he released it at/just after the buzzer

[x001m69]

Butler shot horrible that game. They missed so many shots that were right at the basket. They could have won the game, but didn't.

[ugotcrossed23]

i was so mad after this shot

butler deserved to win

[BrianConway67]

@TheBirdmanOfToledo that makes you a bitch

[MadSkillsJohn]

yessssir lets go duke

[microflex22]

Lets Go Duke! Lets Go Duke!

[YesIRap]

Might very well be the greatest miss in the History of Basketball. The fact that it was that close is ridiculous. Also, this shot brought me to Sports Science

[AndrewSheneman]

LETS GO DUKE LETS GO DUKE

[dipship31]

This had to be the biggest collective "OOOHHHHHHHHH!!" in sports history

[heavyrain24]

@dipship31 go fuck yourself

[CoolEthan182]

@titsmcgee44D My reply was a response to someone saying that Butler won in heart. Sure, they won the hearts of America, but they didn't show any more heart than Duke did. Duke beat just as good of teams to get there, therefore I'm not seeing your point. This wasn't an argument of who won over the most fans, it was a case of Duke showing every bit of determination as Butler did.

[stephenallentheman14]

@TheBirdmanOfToledo dude me too and i imagine what if Hayward actual made the shot it would have made history!!!

[bubbanater07]

imagine duke got in big trouble got recruiting violations and got there whole season taken away

[FootballBoi815]

will those girls just shut up!!!

[pelorojo7]

Fuck Duke fucken faggots

[hawsee]

you know what Duke? nobody likes you

[kurby91]

If he would have moved the ball over than less the width of his pinky, and gone half a mph shorter, the ball would have gone in. Oh well. Still an amazing run they had.

[bdukie11]

@kurby91 thanks john brenkus

[kurby91]

@bdukie11 I saw it on TV...and you're welcome.

[sfabrookly]

@kurby91 you got that information from sports science lol

[kurby91]

@sfabrookly I don't remember what it was called, I just remember seeing it on tv lol. :P

[gwyneth00]

This was one of the most poorly officiated games I've seen in a long time. It was obvious in the first half that the refs were completely favoring Butler and calling any possible touch foul on Duke. Just look at the free throw numbers. Duke almost always gets jobbed by the refs. This should have been a fairly routine 10-point win for Duke, but the refs almost stole it for Butler.

[grindcore4]

i fucken hate when ppl put their hands over their head

[bull864]

I don't get how anyone can pull for duke unless they went to duke. Butler vs Duke was good vs evil. The bad guys got lucky and won.

[archer000109]

butler deserved it 

[chitownbulls694]

He's coming to the Bulls. And so is Lebron ! BITCHHHH

[shankar430]

@CoolEthan182

haha sooo true

[jjjhs08]

@shankar430 so NOT true

[bwc3821]

@CoolEthan182 Yeah, right. The whole world was against Duke. They hand to batle so much. Poor them. It's almost like they had a cinderella-like win.

Kinda ironic, huh?

[jjjhs08]

@bwc3821 haha so true...love the sarcasm :) its not like ppl wanting you to lose makes it harder to win anyway...it just fuels u

[jjjhs08]

@CoolEthan182 what are you talking about? there more still more duke fans than butler, regardless of where the game was played...anyways, duke didnt "overcome" the whole nation wanting them to lose...that just fueled them even more...congrats on the title but dont make it into something it isnt please

[titsmcgee44D]

@CoolEthan182 What exactly did Butler do? How about beat No. 1 Syracuse, No. 2 Kansas State, a very solid No. 5 Michigan State team, and come within inches of a national title in their home city. Underdog team beating the odds and coming so close to fully conquering them. Duke won the hearts? I have to disagree.

[matrixman609]

@CoolEthan182 what did butler do? they did what every other mid major couldn't. pretty remarkable since no one expected they would even be in that position. duke doesn't come as a shock to be in a final four, but it had been a while since they won it all.

[x9lightning91]

I was there, as a Michigan State fan. And I'm pretty sure that they don't judge the true 2010 NCAA Champs by heart, but by the scoreboard. Plus, every Butler fan I talked to down there was much less classy than the Duke fans, I'm glad Duke won.

[hallway74]

Butler is the true 2010 NCAA Champs (If judged by heart, not the scoreboard.)

[F110mech]

@hallway74 Butler is the true runner up. My hat goes off to them for what they did in this season, but they were ooutplayed by 2 points. DUKE #1

[camroncrzy51]

@hallway74 so...duke players dont have heart? im not sure where you could possibly draw a conclusion like that. i have all the respect in thw orld for brad stevens and butler. theyre the toughest team we played all yr. gordon hayward is one hell of a player. but this duke team was a great story. to improve like they have over four yrs and all theyve been through. not to mention nolan smith winning a championship on the same court his late father won one on.

[Eruaphadriel]

@hallway74

Duke was just as much the Champs in terms of the heart. The entire nation was against the Blue Devils, but they made it anyway

[IReviewiPods1]

@Eruaphadriel yeah but duke is gay and they have an issue with moon walking a bit too much. they also like inviting there biggest fans to be refs. if you watch the highlights that they played of the news they show duke with a obvious travel 2 times and another time with a possible one. u can also see about 2 uncalled fouls but i dont care about that as much because i like a physical game.

[Eruaphadriel]

@IReviewiPods1

Well, the first sentence just about destroyed any kind of impartiality I might have thought you had. And given that the game was in Indiana, your ref point is null. Sorry to burst your bubble, but Duke won the NCAA and all the anti-fans (including, I suspect, you) can do nothing but pretend that they have any kind of perspective on the game and the sport.

[2009rockchalk]

@hallway74 Butler is NOT the NCAA Champs. I could care less that they almost won. Butler is not a mid major but they are not the NCAA Champs either. Is Memphis the NCAA Champs from 08 since they outplayed Kansas for 38 minutes?

[sunjaysoccer]

@hallway74 i totally agree

[lasda13]

Oh well, DUKE are the champ... Kudos for BUTLER for an amazing challenge

[NovaBasketball]

Absolutely phenomenal game. Heartbreak for Butler. That would have been one of the all-time endings in sports.

[IPRANKTheFool]

lol im glad they missed it

[IPRANKTheFool]

lol im glad they missed it
