    Does beating St. John's at MSG by 13 w/o Karaban warrant losing three first place votes or am I nitpicking?

    How many Yarders Actually Went to UConn?

    Quinnipiac undergrad and New Haven for master's. Toured campus but never applied...this was late 90's. Stupid decision, but have been a UConn fan since Tate's turnaround when I was 10. Not looking to incur the wrath here, but actually wanted to attend Syracuse's Newhouse school...got into Cuse...

    What's your BMI?

    While I certainly feel that I am out of shape and can stand to lose some weight, 5'10 and 225 with a BMI of 32 (obese) is extremely deflating....say it ain't so...

    UConn - All Warrior Team

    I think you can make a case for the vast majority of the players that have come through the program. Don't recall many lightweights playing for Calhoun. Most of these guys had heart, were bangers, came to play.

    RIP Stanley Robinson

    Surreal...watching all these highlight videos, hard to fathom the unacceptable truth. Terrific energy, terrific player, terrific human being. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family. RIP, Stanley.

    Sad News Carl Reiner passed away

    Just watched Summer Rental with John Candy and Rip Torn (Reiner directed it) just a few days ago and was remarking to my 13 year old that it sucks how a majority of the cast of a movie I grew up watching as passed away ALTHOUGH the director, Carl Reiner, is still alive at 98 years old. Guy was...

    Electric or Gas Power Washer

    My wife just got me the Ryobi Electric Pressure Washer from Home Depot for Father's Day. Has three attachments and works great. The downer is the plug-in aspect. You have three long cords/hoses (sprayer hose, garden hose and extension cord/plug for machine). It looks ridiculous, but it's not...

    UConn One Shining Moment Video

    Finally able to see the guys from the early 90's that you don't see in the highlight vids and other terrific clips that are out there...Fair, Sellers, Willingham, etc. Just to echo all who mentioned the second half of the clip, gave me the chills watching. Tremendous props to the individual who...

    Top 10 plays for the Season

    That Wichita St. play that started with a Sid turnover, but ended with a vicious Sid put-back slam, could be considered 1b. Incredible team effort that ensued following the rejection.

    UConn vs. Arizona Sell Out?

    Once you get under the upper level overhang at the XL, it's like you're in a different dimension. Regarding crowd noise, it's almost like you're hearing it as if you were holding up a conch shell to your ear....could be just me. I also prefer to sit as close as I can

    OT: Jeff Adrien causing some trouble

    This sounds like some schizophrenic behavior. Comes out of nowhere; Adrien was never like this as far as we know. Kid needs a psych eval. ASAP. Sad to read too; guy was solid.
