I voted for the Laettner shot because of my love for Duke. But I have to admit there were other choices that tugged at my heart. YIKES, such choices. sigh...

Was I supposed to vote for Charlotte Smith's shot that was taken AFTER the buzzer?

That was great. I mean, really great. Thanks for the link. I've bookmarked it.

Here's a chance to stick it to those awful folks in Bristol who hate Duke. (I'm of the opinion that they don't like or hate anyone, but really do like raking in the long green - if it brings ratings, like showing Duke's games, great; and if it brings ratings like commentators trash Duke, great). In any case, espn.com has a poll up on the 100 greatest highlights of all time. One of those is The Shot. You know what to do.

Thanks dukerev!

They asked for the top ten moments. As for the other 9 moments, I went with ones that simply won't make, and have no chance of competing with the Pass/the Shot/"SCORRRRRRRRRRRE"/pan to thomas hill. I mean, if Gar Heard, David Pearson, the NASCAR fight with Richard Petty, Vinko Bogataj, and Gene Sarazen's 1935 Masters compete in the Top Ten, I'll be shocked!

How else can we take a shot at the ESPN folks? VOTE SOME MORE!
Thanks again,
Lavabe

It was great to see that the Sampras - Agassi point of '95, the greatest tennis point that I have ever seen, made it.

Only one highlight can be proclaimed ESPN's "Greatest Sports Highlight." You know what it must be:

For those of you who don't know, ESPN is holding a competition to decide the greatest highlight ever in sports. Tomorrow (February 12) everyone can vote for Laettner's shot against Cal's "the band is on the field" clip. It should be tough to win it so I hope everyone heads over to ESPN to vote.

I personally think Laettner's shot should at least be in the final four... It might be hard to beat Eruzione's goal (Do you believe in miracle's? YES" or Bill Buckner's missed groundball.

Don't forget to head over to http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/sports...ghlights/index

Go Laettner!!!

After voting for Christian on the 12th, come back the next day & vote for the underdog Boise St over MJ.

Seriously, though, stiff competition from the 'Cal v. the Band'. As much as we love Christian's shot, that highlight will be hard to beat on a nationwide vote.

Go Duke! & GTHC!
