When I saw the play happen, I thought he left early, when I watched the first replay I thought he left early and then when they did the slow split screen I thought they got the call wrong. Its a shame the game came down to that but I think Japan and the US will move forward anyway. It was a great game.

I mean, maybe I didn't read Buck's lips correctly, maybe what he said was "Look, we've already been embarassed by the Canadians and if you let that run stand we'll be more of a laughing stock than the US Hockey team. So you better reverse that call." :) Actually I have no problem with Amercia, Americans on the other hand. :) Just kidding, but are you telling me seriously that Japan didn’t get robbed?

So you better reverse that call." And thus Japan got robbed of the go ahead run.
