    OT: Best Pizza in CT

    I've been to 15 of the 30. Grigg St. in Greenwich belongs here. Some notable ommissions are Mike's in West Haven, Milestone in Thomaston, Frisco's in New Haven and Roseland in Derby.

    OT: Best Pizza in CT

    Honestly, the last 2 times I've been to Sally's have been completely underwhelming. IMO Zupp's, Roseland, Modern and NH Pepe's are all better choices, as is Zeneli's which is also on Wooster St.

    Best come back after a serious illness or injury

    Love this. Somehow I wound up a huge fan of tennis during that era. All the personalities on both the women’s and men's sides seemed larger than life back then, and Agassi was one of the biggest stars. Graff was legendary as well and I would be remiss if I didn't mention Martina Hingis and...

    Paige explodes for 44! And sets a record.

    Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd are both so easy to love. They each play a refined, efficient game that is flat out effective. I was a huge UConn Women's fan back in the Shea Ralph days and slowly drifted away to a point of mild interest during the last 2 decades, but Strong and Fudd will make you...

    This Year’s Lineup

    Solo Ball is a starter without a doubt. I've seen some strange takes on the Boneyard, but Solo is a definite starter and one of the leading scorers.

    Best UConn Center of All Time?

    My take on Clingan versus Thabeet is that Clingan was a far better overall basketball player while in college. For example, he simply had screen setting and passing abilities that Thabeet will never have. When you factor in Clingan's defensive presence in the NCAA tournament I recall a team...

    Best UConn Center of All Time?

    Clingan was All Rookie second team. What did Thabeet ever accomplish in the NBA? Absolutely nothing. If he was as good as you think he was, he wouldn't have had the NBA career he did.

    Best UConn Center of All Time?

    He was 7'3" and therefore blocked a lot of shots. There's a reason he never averaged more than 3 points and 3 rebounds in the NBA, he just wasn't very skilled. In fact, he was one of the worst uses of a draft pick ever. Outside of Len Bias, who never played an NBA game, Thabeet produced the...

    Best UConn Center of All Time?

    Just stop. Clingan is light years better than Thabeet ever was. There's a reason Thabeet absolutely sucked in the NBA, he just wasn't that good. Clingan is a better player in so many ways. Even bringing up Thabeet alongside Okafor and Clingan is laughable. Clingan has National Championships...

    Storrs Central: Eric Reibe FIBA U19 World Cup Film Review

    Love what I see from this kid. What a great back up to Tarris.

    Liam McNeeley lands a shoe deal - and a rookie honor

    Charlotte, where Huskies go to ruin their career. It's been a sad history in so many ways.

    OT: Your Favorite 3 NBA Players of All Time

    My 3 are: Patrick Ewing, a warrior and I got to see him play in College, as well as the pros. Wilt, larger than life in both stature and statistics Kevin Garnett when he was young. Did everything.

    Shabazz Napier was special

    In 2014 Shabazz simply refused to lose. My favorite UConn backcourt ever, Bazz and Boat.

    Still great, but overrated athletes

    I can't give you Jeter. I am a Red Sox fan and have to say that Jeter was superb. Just the way he carried himself let you know he was something special. Rookie of the Year, 14 time All Star, 5 time World Series Champ, .310 lifetime batting average, over 3400 hits, over 1300 rbi, 5 Gold...
