    What are you binge watching?

    I started The Tourist on Netflix. Set in the Australian outback, an Irish guy who is there for reasons neither we nor he knows, ends up with amnesia. He looks athletic and capable and while we haven't seen him fight through two episodes, there has to be a Jason Bourne type thing going on...

    Tidbits

    Worked at The Hartford during two summers in college, running the big Xerox 9700 printers that cranked out policies and auto insurance cards etc. It was a fun crew + me the college kid. The oldest was one Bob Camby, father of the recipient of Calipari's first huge bag of cash. Bob was a huge...

    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    For some of the same reasons a lot of UConn people made the trip to Kansas, Iowa State and Illinois people can go and Make this a long weekend in Boston, which might be a place they’ve never visited. Yes U, Illinois is also farm country. The thing that might hold that number down is Easter.

    OT: John Calipari to return as Kentucky men's basketball coach

    You can believe what you want, but a prep school coach friend of mine goes to these guys camps, meets most of them etc. He thinks Cal is a good coach and fun and interesting guy. It shouldn’t be hard to imagine that he’s subject to the whims of Kentucky. Like Brian Cashman is probably very...

    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    I was there for a Val Halen concert. It's at the level of the roof. There's a row or two of suites above the top row of seats and the rafters is on top of that. I'd rather watch on TV

    Cam Spencer lights UConn's Fire

    Ironically or not Cam also lives this. When he gets beat he doesn't foul the guy, he lets him score so he can stay out there.

    OT: John Calipari to return as Kentucky men's basketball coach

    He's not alone. Kansas fans are being utterly dumb about the portal, thinking Timberlake failed because he was a mid major. The reality is that Morris was the worst transfer (obviously) and Dickenson, while he played well, drove away too much depth. Like UConn, KU runs complicated stuff on...

    Are you sure. Portal came out in 2018.

    OT: John Calipari to return as Kentucky men's basketball coach

    Cal can coach. Thats not the problem. He just doesn’t know how to build a team for this era. If he’s smart he may bring in a new assistant to help with that. The portal has made it nearly impossible to win playing a very young team.

    Yeah. That’s why it’s the best place to park and even pre-game away from crowds if the weather isn’t terrible. According to Shiri Spear the weather is going to be terrible.

    How to guard Jaedon leedee

    That's what I was suggesting. Running Castle or Newton at him in that situation will disrupt what he does. Especially late in the shot clock, where a kick out now results in a desperation shot from outside. We should be familiar, as teams did it to us until we started getting the ball to...

    The Official 2024 NY Jets Thread

    Unless you can trade him, I'd keep him. He's got tools, he just hasn't learned how to play QB. At some point the QBs will start getting hurt and somebody will trade for him (like Dobbs to Minnesota last year).

    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    When I've gone in bad weather I just paid the extra for the North Station garage. You don't even go outside, so don't need a coat etc. Helpful. On a nice day, you can easily walk from government center, where parking is easier and cheaper. The great failure of Boston transit is that South...

    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    Does anybody have any idea what time the Saturday game would be? I looked at last year: Sunday 2:20 5:05 Saturday 6:09 8:49 We were west, so the late game. This year East and West are Saturday, so I assume an early game, maybe around 6:00 in Boston and the late game in LA. Sunday...

    How to guard Jaedon leedee

    Good. That makes it easier. Since he's not as big or as good as Sanogo, all Donovan has to do is keep his arms up and not reach. Meanwhile, I'd do what teams did to Sanogo and while he's figuring out what array of moves can get past DC, double him with a wing. Let's see his passing skills...

    Well The Greatest Bar has always been a UConn alumni event bar. I think they take the top floor. Check AD Dave's Twitter, they could put an event on. It's close. I don't like it, but it's huge. Tavern in the Square is nice but crowded and slow. I've heard good things about Banners but haven't...

    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    Middle upper deck down and Loge are all good. Top of the upper deck makes me ill. Corners and end-zones, I tend to prefer TV. Lower corner is worse really (the upper lower and lower upper have better visibility). I also find it hard to get to the Garden, but I'm southwest of the city. Those...

    Boston Thursday Roll Call

    It has been before. Could happen again but not for many years if at all. I wanted to go, being semi-local, but the prices are absurd and it's Easter week. I'm buried at work and covering for two others who are out. I can't miss Friday. Maybe I'm just getting older, but I want to see the...

    They stopped running offense and Newton started dribbling up high while guys stood around. It's a bad idea because our normal offense wastes a ton of clock anyway.

    Chief’s Briefs - Northwestern Edition

    There were a lot of uncalled body shots by both teams. It’s was just lose all around. I’m glad some of our Big East experience prepared us for that. Donovan was stellar. Newton was good as was Spencer. Castle strong on D. Need more from Alex, and need Cam to hit his shots.

    Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - 2nd Round

    However much we complained about our bracket, Houston getting A&M as a 9 seed is nasty. They were playing great late, style very much like Houston.

    Northwestern Post Game Thread

    We stopped running offense for a long stretch. Made a lot of circus layups, but I wasn’t real happy with the execution in the 2nd half. Shooting was terrible but stopped trying to run our usual stuff, which is more concerning. Props to Northwestern, knew they wouldn’t stay cold.
