Sure they do. How do you know that the angles shown are representative of what actually happened and not just selected because they bolster a particular point?
i think weve all seen enough pictures and videos from enough angles for it to be conclusive, no?
It is clear that BC (the eventual flag hanger) is shooting at a player while not wearing his armband.
It is also very clear that while Joy's player was pushed away by a gang of refs, Alex is allowed to hang out, while eliminated, for a long time and harass them into getting the call he wants.
Your comment is ridiculous anyway, have you watched the vid? The angle is near directly above the whole incident and not from a particular teams' direction.
Oh yeh, much like the Rodney King vid made a point.....
Chicago, the fact of the matter is, regardless of any camera angle, what you see is what happened regardless of agenda, angle, bias or whatever.
People lie, the camera doesn't (for the most part).
So, we all know that if you're not wearing an armband you're dead, and dead players should leave the field, correct?! I may be wrong but it looks and sounds like when BC jumps over the snake, the ref shouts 'you're gone' and rushes in to take off BOTH players armbands. And at this point there is only one live player on the field.
So, if you raise your gun to shoot someone, 1. yourself being dead, 2. not wearing an armband, 3. not making any attempt to leave the field, should you then accept you're going to still get shot at?
And, if this happens, how can it be called malicious play on the part of the live player (and a suspension be given) when a dead player won't stop shooting! What about the 2 dead players that wouldn't leave the field?
I love both teams, they are my biggest inspiration (after Pete of course
) but how Joy have stayed so collected and dignified is an even bigger inspiration when I know how wound up I can get in a 'fun' local tournament that doesn't really matter!
Everyone makes mistakes and in such a tiny time frame who can really blame them for getting it wrong. Lying about it is a different matter though! Having seen the evidence the least they can do is appologise and overturn the suspension...Please let us have the news that the suspension has been withdrawn because otherwise they're making a mockery of the whole sport
Is there any news yet? x

The refs are clearly removing the dynasty players armbands, so they clearly made a decision that they were out, and in the arguement between Brian and the refs about the malicious shooting call, you clearly hear a ref say "No, but he shot you clean initially." When Sebban comes in, armband or not, Brian Cole has his gun up, and acccording to Magued, was shooting. He cant have thought Sebban wouldn't shoot back.
I think you'll find the Joy player will have his punishment revoked but as for the full and official announcement, I think they are waiting for Bart to come back to do it.
Interesting to note, whilst the martials were penalising joy, alex fraige broke 5 out of 7 "playing on" rules
