for MU during a s h i t t y rendition of "One Shining Moment."
-
Oh yeah, that was a terrible version of the song. And what was with all the cutaways to Jennifer Hudson?
-
Agreed on a terrible One Shining Moment. Not a single highlight from the best game of the tournamnet Xavier vs Kansas St. But if you want to see MU they need to win a frickin game. I was dreading Pondexter but was pleasantly surprised I didnt have to live through it again.
-
dreadful. just dreadful. didnt expect to see mu...or j hudson. what was up with the j hudson cutaways.
dreadful.
-
i wrote a really strong letter to CBS about that horrible One Shining Moment, then didn't send it. i think that a lot of guys get a pretty reliable emotional jolly off that every year (I know I do, hope I'm not lame and alone on that). I felt totally let down. Hence the letter, as if to an ex gf, that never got sent... god I'm lame.
-
Shouldve sent that letter...
You would think that they wouldve given a tribute to teddy pendergrass (original singer and possibly writer) who died during the past year. Also, they usually try to get all 65 teams in regardless of their results. Finally, I wouldt be interested to find out how much money they wasted on jennifer hudson...I bet she didn't know what the song was when they first called her.
If you can't tell, I am also very disappointed.
-
Totally agree about Jennifer Hudson screen time. That was b.s. that was precious seconds for schools wasted. Wofford got in though.
I thought thuggins shot at the end was touching and I hate the guy.
-
Dave Barrett is the original singer and is the guy who wrote the song. Teddy and Luther Vandros have done versions of the song as well. I hope they jettison this Jennifer Hudson version. Horrible.
-
I knew it would be bad from the start when Hudson says the ball is tipped and they show her instead of the traditional opening tip of the tournament.
Absolutely terrible, it has gotten worse every year. It was always cool to see the champs cutting down the nets jsut before the start of the song with the credits rolling. Now of course the cutting of the nets has been bought by Werner ladder the official ladder of the ncaa.

I know they used to feature at least one shot, however brief, of every team in the tournament. Apparently that is no longer the case.

Still got goosebumps....

Preparing for when they can't fit in 96 teams?

Probably a good thing, because for Marquette it has been a shot of someone looking sad on the bench pretty much every year for the last 4.
-
I would've lost a lot of money betting on the shot of Lazar collapsed on the court after his missed shot. I thought for sure the scene would have made it with the cameraman rushing to put the camera about a foot from his face.
-
Here's the video for those who haven't seen it.
Personally, the instant Butler's last shot didn't fall, I turned the TV off. Didn't want to see Duke celebrating.

Didn't see Washington, either.
-
Who the frack is Jennifer Hudson?
I refuse to watch it.
-
This is an awful song and I never understood why this has become a tradition.
-
I think the original version of the song is great. It was also cool when they did the long lead in with the team cutting down the nets while the credits scrolled and the long prelude to the song played in the background.
-

agreed I also beleive Jim Nance to be simply unbearable. he ruins the NCAA's and Masters back to back with his pathetic melodrama. Good news i dont have to listen to the fool the other 50 weeks a year.

You don't watch the NFL? Your missing the legendary Nance-Simms duo!

The only good version of One Shining Moment...

They should get Gus Johnson to sing it.
-
Agree with all.....the worst one shining moment ever. She didn't even sing it traditionally, it was awful

fantastic! I was in NO for the game and actually had never seen this until now.
Also, count me in on the Jennifer Hudson hate train. Some things need to be kept classic, and this is one of them.

ha lucky me...no not a big football fan watch a little of the super bowl every year but saturdays and sundays in the fall winter are filled with BBAll for me.

How about less videos of Jennifer Hudson and more clips of teams in the tournament.

I'm glad you mentioned Jennifer Hudson, and how she destroyed this song/video. Worst version CBS has ever done, glad to see people like Darren Rovell mentioning it today as well.

+1 Bring back Luther.
-
Jennifer did a nice rendition of it. Yeah...less of her, but I think they also showed clips of Luther in previous OSM videos.
But AT LEAST show Marquette ONCE! I saw Tennessee like 3-4 times!
I thought Zar on the ground could have been inserted in one of the sadder parts of the song.
And man...that replay of Hayward's shot (Butler) looked A LOT closer from that angle...

Tennessee played four games...we played one.

No way.......It sounded nothing like the previous ones.......it was like today's people who refuse to sing the National Anthem traditionally and end up butchering it. Definite FAIL on CBS and Hudson's part

2003's sucked considering we made it to the Final Four. They showed three MU clips all of players smiling. Joe Chapman, Travis Diener, and Robert Jackson.
NO DWYANE WADE?!?!?!?! A triple double against the number one team in the country means nothing apparently.

BTW, I found this video when looking at the other one.

Still gets me all misty-eyed.
-
I secretly suspect that CBS' goal for One Shining moment is to show as many crying student athletes as possible.
They did show a handful of hot cheerleaders though...
I agree that Jennifer Hudson sucked and it's a bad tradition to begin with.

I am glad that Marquette didn't have to be apart of that terrible song. Quite frankly, they didn't deserve to be in it the way they blew that game.
