The latest Boston Univ alum magazine has a fantastic 2 page article about Marisa being the new women's basketball coach. It's fun to read because she has become a clone of Geno and Chris....tough on the players in exactly the same way. If anyone wants the magazine or knows of any way to post...

This is hearsay but here it is. Last spring I was in YNHH for a short stay and spent 20 minutes or so talking UConn basketball with a young orderly. She told me that she went to several basketball games because her best friend was Andra's cousin and Andra was able to give the cousin free...

In 1996 I was in a study group for Pasteur Merieux Connaught USA and it turned out that I had received the actual vaccine. My impression is that they never actually marketed it to the public but did provide it to veterinarians for use with dogs. Last year I did get Lyme disease and the cure was...

I saw House of Wax in 3-D when I was 7 years old. I think the theater also had surround sound and part of the movie had someone hitting one of those balls connected by elastic to a paddle out into the audience. Vincent Price got his wax museum statues by covering real dead people with melted...

My 6th grade class from Webster Hill School went there in probably 1956 or '57. I was a picky eater and didn't like the all eggs breakfast. Fortunately the director of the camp was my neighbor, Mr Malins, (he called me "dimples") and he arranged for me to have Cheerios. I was soooo relieved...

Do you think Geno and Chris have a box of 100th win tee shirts for the players tucked away somewhere?

I watched today's game vs Texas on TV today and the casino arena looked packed. Why? Free parking with easy access to the casino and no traffic jams leaving when the game is over. Also dining options of all kinds and fun stores to walk around and look at before and after the game. Finally...

It's almost December. They're talking about Santa!

Here's my plan for Morgan: :rolleyes: She elects to go pro and gets picked by the CT Sun. After the season is over she declines to play abroad because she'd be crazy to play year round on a knee that probably will forever be uncertain. So she stays around, enrolls in an MBA or some other...

I think Geno has probably been scheduling games longer than Q has and knows that you can't work out anything last minute. He also knew for 4 years that Stewart was going to graduate in 2016. He probably hit up Q last spring or last summer. The question I have is when did he ask Colgate. If...

Fabulous news! Congratulations to Crystal and we can't wait til you graduate and becomes an official Husky!! Has she grown? Iirc, wasn't she 5'5" last fall? This bears investigation unless I'm getting too senile to remember such things.

Coaches in the WNBA might insist that Morgan play more minutes than Geno would if she stayed a 5th year at UConn. What if during play her knee gets even more damaged and complete recovery is never an option. Should a 22 year old woman risk being in pain or losing mobility for the rest of her...

Perfect! Thanks so much. I've made 3 copies in case my mind fails me again :confused:

I think I saw somewhere a 2015-16 schedule that also included the TV stations covering the games, but I neglected to print it out. Does anyone know where that can be found?

Hi Carnac. We're not talking about gender here, we're talking about singular vs plural. Person is singular, people is plural. He/she is singular and they is plural. You join plural with plural and singular with singular, hence person with his/her and people with they. And no, I'm not an...
