    Top Connecticut players never to play at UCONN

    Fluff was dope! I played (sat on the bench) against him in high school. He always had a smooth game. I feel like I remember him getting some time/sitting the bench for varsity his freshman year.

    Anyone else change their shirt at Halftime?

    100% Went from the white "UConn" jersey to the blue "Connecticut" jersey. Have to switch up the vibe!

    Did you ever meet a celebrity that acted like a jerk?

    Too many. I used to work at the Ellen Degeneres Show years back and some of the guests on the show were rude. Have also lived in LA for 15 years and met others in passing... some are way nicer than you'd ever expect and others were awful. Two in particular I remember being pretty awful were...

    Suggestions for outdoor dining restaurants in Connecticut

    L'Orcio in New Haven is great for ambiance and food. Goodfellas in New Haven has a nice rooftop patio and very good food. Stonebridge in Milford has pretty decent food, a huge patio and is right by the water. Have also heard good things about Rooftop 120 in Glastonbury and Cava in Southinton.

    Best All Time NBA Centers

    Tough argument because like any sports "best" it becomes a generational thing. Hard to argue Wilt, Russell or Kareem, but if you drop them all into the same era, Shaq based on size alone would have moved these guys around. I love these debates, but I don't think anyone dominated the way Shaq...

    Kemba into Elite 8 of college basketball ESPN GOAT Tournament

    I'm with you, and all for it. I only watch/use ESPN because it's kind of, there and has been the go to for so long but it's such a mess. My best friend is a director at Fox Sports, so I support them no matter what, but also am hoping he can hook it up once we officially tip off in the Big East...

    Kemba into Elite 8 of college basketball ESPN GOAT Tournament

    yeah, you would think with ESPN running it, it would be smoothly run. I can't keep up and kinda gave up on it. Plus it's just a popularity contest which sucks. I saw that Kemba moved on but remember him losing, went back to their Twitter and it still says D-Wade. It was a fun idea when it...

    Kemba into Elite 8 of college basketball ESPN GOAT Tournament

    I'm so confused by this tournament. I've seen so many matchups where they show the final result and a player won, but then in the next round, the player who lost is there...

    First time all year I think this team can get in the tourny

    Can definitely see us going 7-1 the rest of the way and either sneaking in as an at large or winning the conference tournament. The games we've lost were close and we're just getting better. I can see us as a 3/4 seed heading into the AAC tourney and surprising a lot of people.

    OT: restaurant for valentines day

    Yeah, they didn't really put much thought into that one when they opened the second spot! Never been to Avert but every time I'm home I try to get up to West Hartford to one of those places.
