    Congrats to Paige

    Paige holds two new records. Set the rookie Wings record for assists. Also she's the fastest rookie to score 500 points and drop 100 dimes. She'll have lots more before she's through

    What's the best sporting event/game you ever attended

    GREATEST GAME was, of course, the 1999 NCAA championship. I had tears in my eyes at the final buzzer. But since UConn games don't count... 1994 World Cup. I was working for the World Cup Organizing Committee in Washington. Got to see all of the games at RFK...HOWEVER the one that stands out...

    OT: Rule of 55 (Retirement)

    Keep in mind that any social security funds you access can be reduced by other earned income you may make from other jobs. Look into that. Also, when you are eligible for Medicare, Medicare is not free. I pay about 10-15%, I think, from my Social Security income to pay for Medicare. You'll...

    Loved uconn El -Amin

    I was there too. The Dookie section was chanting "We're Outstanding!" before the game started. One of my fondest memories ever was walking out of the Dome and watching those same fans with tears running down their faces. 'Outstanding' didn't last very long.

    Basketball relegation system???

    So, considering the mighty ACC enjoyed 4 teams in the tournament this year with only one going past the first round, the Stanford coach is encouraging a relegation system such as soccer leagues use. Not a bad idea. I'll bet those folks that blew up conferences over the past twenty years...

    15 (Possibly) unbreakable sports records

    Several of these will be broken. Those MOST likely to be broken, in order, would be Bolt's 100 time, Bonds HRs, UConn wins, Phelps' medals. Among those LEAST likely to be broken, again in order, include Youngs' 511 wins, Ryan's strikeouts, Ripken's games, and Woods' cuts made. Interestingly...

    Championship swag

    Can't find one. There is simply no room for 12 titles on the back of any shirt. We're working on the front.

    Is anyone else offended at the mistaken ESPN headline "Rick Pitino could give Big East fifth title this century"

    UConn was not in the Big East in 2014. UConn had 4 this century, plus Nova and Cuse.
