    UConn - Notre Dame post game

    I honestly (and irrationally) thought the same thing.

    Marquette BET Postgame Thread

    I made a bet with a guy who graduated from Marquette. I took UConn but gave 20 points. Westbrook was the MVP as far as I am concerned. Her 3 at the end saved my behind.

    OT: Burlington Breweries

    Oh and if you like pub food. Ruben James is great. And if dive bars are your thing, don't miss the Other Place.

    OT: Burlington Breweries

    I live in the New North End of Burlington, where there is a small brewery called Simple Roots. I like the beer at that place. Others have touched on the other breweries. I do NOT like the beer at the Vermont Pub & Brewery. As for places to eat, Pho Hong has the best Vietnamese food I have...

    Nice refs

    I was at the game. (Still here.) The refs let so much off the ball contact from UCLA but then called touch fouls on us. many elbows and stiff arms not called. The physical play got to UConn. No doubt about it They got it together in the 4th. Looking forward to Sunday.

    OT: The best mid-major coaches to know about

    "John Becker (Vermont - age 49): Took over in 2011/12 and has turned the Catamounts into the class of that league, with seven straight 20-win seasons. That includes two NCAA tourney trips (and one win) and two trips to the CBI semifinals. He's an elite offensive coach, as they net out at 20th...

    Rod Sellers Sighting

    I know I am a bad person for saying this, but that is one of my favorite UConn basketball moments ever. Makes me chuckle every time.

    Who was the CT high school all American who went to Maryland?

    Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

    "John E. Hoover: Big 12 Conference expansion was always just a bluff to get more money." It sure feels like this is true. Brings back memories of when the Patriots said they were moving to Hartford. Everyone in CT got all excited and then, bam, they didn't come after all. Turns out it was...

    OT: Hope Solo suspended, USWNT contract terminated

    Is she classless? Yes. Would I want anything to do with her? No. Is this suspension appropriate? No chance. It's ridiculous for so many reasons.

    OT: Super bowl Prediction/Discussion Thread.

    This, this, this. The late "smart" money had Denver beating the Pats. I think 70% of the money was bet on the Patriots. The professional sports bettors waited until the last minute to put their cash on Denver. The casinos also cleaned up because they "gambled" on a Denver win/cover. I...

    There's no line for the game?

    I usually do not comment about UConn football, but when I do, it is because of posts like this. Sorry, dude. I will be cheering for you in the post season. Good luck!

    UConn 150 to 1

    Good point. I may do just that.

    UConn 150 to 1

    I was in Vegas this week. I wanted to place a bet on UConn to win the NC next year but the odds were 25 to 1. I declined that bet. I only checked one casino though.

    Earl was my favorite player to watch. He borrowed my roommates notes from a sociology class, however, and never returned them. My roomy took it well, and we still joke about it.

    Warde speaks in Code

    if attendance this coming year matters, then we obviously don't already have a non-public agreement with a new conference. i figured that anyway, but this statement seems to confirm it.

    Mediator assigned in Maryland vs. ACC lawsuit

    The problem with the analysis is that the author assumes that a school which has granted its media rights to one conference can simply transfer those rights to another conference, with the only issue being damages. I am skeptical of that logic. Once a school has transferred its media rights...

    Mediator assigned in Maryland vs. ACC lawsuit

    That "lawyer" does not know what he is talking about. This statement, for instance, comes from fantasy land: "A grant of rights is a contract between each individual school and the conference pledging the school's media rights to conference for a number of year. Like all contracts, it can be...

    Durant giving KO Props

    I remember watching some NBA commentary a few years ago. Someone asked Chris Webber (retired at the time) about the importance of veteran leadership. He said it was very important. He said that, when certain veterans talk, players listen. He then said something similar to this: "When a guy...

    Temple Cuts Seven Sports

    "Of course, as state school they can have the AD be a significant loss leader for longer than Temple, but math suggests if there is a downturn the athletic department is vulnerable." Not sure but I believe Temple is a state school or at least is state funded.

    Vegas Sportsbook sets odds as if OSU, Mizzou, and Auburn play FSU

    That can't be correct. I hope FS loses to Duke, and Auburn or Missouri plays OS. Assuming OS is the favorite, I will be the farm on the SEC champion.

    UConn Back In Top 20 In U.S. News & World Report Ranking

    "Back" in the top 20? Were we ever in the top 20 in the past? Number 19 would not be the "most impressive position" if we had been there before.
