It happens every year after Selection Sunday. It’s human nature. Defend your turf. The scope of where your from widens. Fans proud of their neighborhood.
My Sliders & Curveballs Pod cohost, Joseph (11) asked after basketball practice Sunday night, Dad, “Did #UConn get the #1 overall & what...
That’s the overflow bar. Friends went. Said it was a zoo.
On semifinal night, you couldn’t even walk on West 33rd street itself, to get near the bar.
Madhouse.
Anybody notice, during intros MQ announces team with West Coast rap. Then UConn, with Biggie comes on. I said, “this games over, before it starts.” ~ East coast.
We got there at 3pm. No line. Walked right into the raging inferno of UConn love. Tight quarters. Packed. Saw some friends. Made our way to the upper bar. Had one beer. Once the Fire Marshall’s who were Parade attendees left, do did we. It felt 120 degrees in there. On the way out, near 4:30...
How did it feel in NYC Saturday when 20,000 #UConn faithful converged on Storrs South mixed w/ a ST Patty’s Day parade and a gorgeous 60 degree day? Feel the energy & excitement of the 2024 BET Championship on The Sliders & Curveballs Podcast.
Sounds of the Game-...
Funny you should say that. Next year he enters the 7th grade.
A couple months ago we’re setting up our room and microphones to interview Tyler Olander in the SJU AD’s office, so Joseph says, “I can’t wait to be in college, it’s my dream to eat snacks all day in a Dorm room.”
Lord help me.
As we all enjoy and cheer on our guys in March Madness, we’ll let the media, coaches, and players zero in on their goals.
We kickoff Spring 1st week of April with a great pod about one of baseballs Greatest hitters, Ted Williams. Hope you’ll tune in.
Thank you for supporting us. I’d say...
How did Hass do it? His 1st pod ever tells the story. Mindset off the bench, impact with limited minutes, toughest opponents, how to play while fasting, life before UConn, and his most treasured NBA Super powers. Listen in...
Thanks. It reads like you and HoopHound are responding? To a poster that might not like podcasts, extra sports/UConn content options.,Were you? I don’t see their? post.
Thank you Jay, for always supporting our hobby. We’re fans, creating an audio diary for ourselves, that we think, like minded fans might enjoy.
I’m hoping there’s more great interviews and adventures in store for both of us!
As a Red Sox fan to speak with Yo8i Berra’s family, or have Hassan...
Thanks so much for the kind words. Started off when my son was in Tball, but now many of our fans have watched him grow up on air. My 1st love is UConn basketball and I figured a kid asking adults tough questions might be a nice play on words with (pitches) hence a slider & curveball.
I’m...
The 2nd pod we did, is our Sounds of the Game. You can hear the boos raining down. It’s wild. No love whatsoever. They booed so long in intros, you don’t even hear Luka announced as playing, which was uncertain all day.
Let us know what you think!
Where do you sit? We were Loge 20
We invited him as a future guest. Just met for the 1st time yesterday and took a few pictures. Talked Big East days, when he called games and the potential of UConn & the Celtics. Yesterday’s game was loads of fun. All the stars played well.
Mike Gorman has seen it all. From the Navy to calling Big East games to a legendary Celtics career. He was gracious to give his time to a future sports broadcaster. High on both UConn and Boston’s postseason potential this year!
Our 1st two part Podcast drop. It’s about the highs/lows of...
We’re attending the Celtics game tonight and have prepared a Preview of the MVP contest with a few special guests. But….
#77 may burn us. The risk of buying variable priced tickets for Christmas can be harsh.
GTD with a sore ankle?
If you were redrafting the league, which player do you take...
Hoping to host a bowling tournament near campus someday w/ fans and players.
Would you bowl duckpin? Hsssan has no idea how tough it is! Never been a 300 game.
Doubt there ever will be.
He’d had never done a podcast. Yet, he had a NY cool about him. It was Christmas break in the Werth Champions Center. Nobody was on campus. Just the team, Joseph, and myself.
Hear Hassan’s very 1st full length interview-
on The Sliders & Curveballs Podcast here;
He’s off and running. Go Hass!
