In what kind of game COULD you see an official take a dive?

Any Harlem Diplomats game.

sufin through ESPN and an article on Mayo's long week and the writers are still saying that the official took a dive in the game.

Do they not read the papers that where Mayo admits he bumped the ref?

I know in watching the video it all looked strange, but he bumped the ref, that;s all that matters IMO

Oh well, life continues.

Thanks

Not a chance JR. Mayo has shown his true colors, and I have watched the video from 5 different camera angles . . . the ref had it right, and Mayo was WRONG! I was just curious if anyone else saw the elbow. Even the Huntington Head Coach aluded to the elbow in his written statement. You can't see the player's (#12) entire body, just the elbow come out, because one of Mayo's teammates was in the way of the camera view. #12 then backs out and raises his hands as to say, "come on, let's do it . . ." Watch the bottom of the "spotlight." The spotlight disappears and the elbow is immediately after that to Mayo's left arm/side.

Sigh.....

I think that I spotted some weapons of mass destruction down in one corner too.

You really need to let this one go, Dog.

maybe someone should point Bush jr. to this -- as clearly Saddam hid them where we all could see it -- in a HS basketball game in 2007
