    Fellow Duck fans,

    Can I encourage everyone to contact the NCAA Commish at the below link and complain about teams who "fake" injuries to gain a timeout. Bottom line, teams are cheating the rules against us, and it isn't being enforced. Nothing will happen unless voices are heard.

    I'm out of the US and have trouble sending letters, but will when I am state-side.

    Go Ducks! Booo the cheats.

    There was actually two instances that were like that during the game caught on film. We should see if we can get someone with some editing skills to put together a professional looking video and send it in. This video does illustrate the fact, but it happened multiple times and that would only help our case.

    Nate, fantastic idea. Do you have the ability to do something like that and post on YT? The cheap link I provided above as only been on a day and has around 6500 hits.

    The problem I have is capturing the video off DVR. Will the game be re-shown? I could probably cut it if I had access to the video, but I'm not a pro at that sort of thing.

    Close to 7,000 hits. Popular topic. Hope everyone can email the officials above and make our point - no room for it.

    I don't know. Ed O. is crafty at all things techno - including Divo and disco. Maybe he could suggest/help on this??

    Well, I say send in what we have and the PAC10 should be able to go back and review the tape. If anything, if we could simply point to the two or three examples at specific times during the game, that would help our cause. This is getting ridiculous though.

    Hey, I sent my emails this AM - to NCAA Commish and Pac10. I hope others do too.

    That video has Burfict returning kicks. LOL. They need to edit that out. In college, many players share the same numbers due to roster size.

    Well, at least USC had some pride and didn't pull this fake injury BS.

    I don't know if that's pride or arrogance, but yes, I don't think they would ever do something like that. They do all their cheating off the field :wink:
