u seem to be able to locate or have access to all the good pics. So until I get my press pass I am asking a favor of you.

I would like to have a photo of the Warren dunk over the ISU guy or the Blake dunk where warren alley oops it to him from half court and blake throws it down and points to him while hanging on the rim..


thank you ...

Your best places to find wire photos (or at least the places I always look) are ESPN.com (there are links to wire photos off the box score page for respective games), and google image/news searches. You can also usually find additional photos at local media sites such as newsok.com and tulsaworld.com. Unfortunately, the game you referred to with Willie was an away game and it appears that while both the papers wrote about the dunk and the ensuing Big 12 weekly awards that followed said game, I don't think either took photographers to Ames. Soonersports.com also does not have the dunk. I could probably get a pretty good screen capture off of some of the video clips I've found, but my computer's on the linux still, so I wouldn't be able to do that until Monday. Sorry :(

Spek to you for using a Non-windows operating system. But the spek is negated on Monday so it's a wash.

It's a temporary solution. NP will absolutely never install Windows Vista on our computer and we can't find our XP disc, so we're stuck on the linux for the time being.

Nah, but given that this message board has usernames as opposed to real names, so I figured that a little bit of anonymity comes with this territory. There are often times when I am about to type his real name when I find myself deleting it in favor of "NP." I don't call him "NP" anyplace but here, nor does he call me "badger" anyplace but here.

Here's probably the best screen capture I can do with the WW dunk:

However, someone else might be able to make a better screen cap or gif out of this video of it. Here's a link. (http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=3875134)

Boomer, you totally rock. I have searched teh innerwebs high and low for this Willie Warren memorable moment and dag nabbit, if nobody else on the internet will preserve this fantastic piece of Sooner basketball history, then it falls on us Sooner fans to do something about it!

Mucho speko :D

I'm convinced Hansbrough is retarded.

I'm convinced he's a mouth breather. It's not a very appealing look if you're constantly on television :rolleyes:

While we're here and posting season pics, does anyone have any other requests?

Yesterday during the game Hansbrough looked surprised the whole game. Close your eyes a bit more or something, they don't get as dry if you don't hold them open so wide.
