As I somehow missed the Final 4 here in Houston, I went to the College football championship game on Monday. Mostly as expected, Michigan was good inside and out, defense and offense. This should clear out any unwanted reverse Husky mojo. Last Husky loss in TX for a while.

Hi Yard. I am not, notEwekon. All apologies and the story. 90 +/- minutes before "party time" on game one FF day, my 5 year old grandson, son in law and myself here in Houston went out for some last minute decorations. While driving my daughter's Honda Fit, we were huge time slammed by a full...

This an official go for Saturday noon. I am completely devoid of skill in managing my OP thread and replies. Looking good on numbers; but want more. 5 is better than 4, no? I have reached some and surely missed others. Way better at throwing parties than threading. Way better. PLEASE PM me and...

My third winter here full time and probably 50x before I started doing doing the winter thing. It is as spread out as you've heard.. I will post some local info as to eats, bars, sights. Who is coming when? Who is staying where? Please feel free to reply or PM me. You won't find this in...

Well I just can't sleep Gone zaga looms. Mark my words. Few minutes left. Bye.

Man, they cook up some crazy stats ro prove a point. Congrats AS. Keep going! Adama Sanogo, UConn: UConn punched its ticket to the Sweet 16 on Sunday behind a second monstrous performance in a three-day span from big man Adama Sanogo. Sanogo scored 24 points and grabbed eight rebounds two days...

The mojo was HUUUUGE in Htown 2011. Here were some extremely un-casual fans on the spot My UConn '11 grad and now mom of 2......Emily, far right - Houston resident Next to her on left... the 1 and only Tom..."Big Red" 4 unidentified (to me) loyal Husky fans. Please identify yourselves if you...

That's right all homers and cup half fullers. Pitino schmino. All considered. Not a bad bracket to my eyes Hawk needs to be fire and Sanogo's head back in the game. The mini tiff with coach Danny was just odd on AS's part. Sneaky hero? A Karaban. Go Huskies!

Montverde Academy Boys just beat Link to match the M A girls team and won the HS national championship game. Shouldn't that mean at least 1&1 to the UConn teams?

Never too early to plan. Next season will my my third MBB tournament time spent in Houston as I split winters here, summers in Westport. As we all shall surely be interested and Houston is the site.....y'all invited down if/when.............(not touching the money). Go Huskies!

Who is this #10, Nika Muhl, she of obvious talents? Defensive POY and surely not offensive. 11 Doty units. PS. UNC, Puke, Kansas, Nova. Really. TV guys must be stoked. Yuk.

Early start today Hoyas get paranoia From Huskies great play

Watching B1G Iowa v. Ohio State. Candidates for player of the year, as Fox sees them, were discussed. He who shall not be named... Kofi...is included. Ok ...this may be dooooming. How good would it be to beat him and the other "K" on their way out? Unlikely? Sure. Guy can dream

IDK if you are all getting the SI (Sports Illustrated) tix redirect ad; but it is worth a look. Just one use thus far....but Gtown tix in DC - SI Tix had best seat 2 value ratio that I saw including StubHub, smarticks etc.

Rick Pitino. Another day, another Covid Cancellation. Every element of the Huskies v. 2022 has been criticized ( both definitions) ad nauseam. So what else we got? Year 2 of purgatory for slick Rick. In the college sport is a business category, some big time school in a power conference...

He has guts, confidence (maybe a bit much), athleticism, good form. And he must come back. Just a very, very young man. Coming back = good news.

Maryland Eastern Shore don't know much about Hawks Huskies flip the birds

20009.... More or less universally agreed on The Yard that losing Dyson poisoned out legitimate chances.... That team was 31-5. Following is a list of significant contributors: AJ Price Jerome Dyson Stanley Robinson Gavin Edwards Hasheem Thabeet Kenba Walker* Jeff Adrien Donnel Beverly...

Watch NFL night 1? TB's - TB versus the Cowboys? Bread pops up. Tom .. Well IDK what he did. Fondle it? Seems to me should have been Giselle. Every guy in the bar caught it. He musta got paid. OK. Anybody else see?

Everybody gets @Chief lucky once. Yay

'Karaban is coming...say I' Totally touching the money on this one. Reading a lot. Gauging the competition. Wants to git er done by August. And I kinda sorta have my first source... Who's with me? And if Clingan effects this in any way, it is a positive or, shall we say, a "net" positive.

CT legalizes recreational marijuana.

Back when everything wasn't everywhere, one of the more obscure reasons I would look forward to hitting Chicago was to be able to listen to WXRT, That and the original KROQ in L.A. were my "destination radio" stations late 80's into 00's travel. It's off season and nothing going on so treat...

Past my bed time but recorded it. The guy is a natural. If nothing else, check out the monologue. And no. I don't know how to attach it here.

Incredible ball being played by our guy and their guy. Fun watch 4 sure. Kemba looks healthy ... Finally. Get on it

Hi all. Regular lurker. Mostly post on MBB board. Excited to go to my first Husky Women's F4. Spending my winters in Houston these days. Are there any gatherings or official spots? Formal functions or semi official Riverwalk bars? For those that haven't been, this is absolutely the nicest...

If anyone in The Yard has experience as a phone based, cold call appointment setter, PM me please. If any of you want to try .... Fine. Not as easy as it sounds. Done right, you will make $25 to $30 per hour. In CASH. If you are a real pro, I have worked with numerous making $40 per hour when...

Umm. What if the committee does not see the Big East as a 5 bid league? Because 5 means both SJU and our Huskies are in, right? Andy Grove: "only the paranoid survive".

Spending roughly 12/1 to 4/30 in Houston now and forward. CT summers. Any Huskies here want to Boneyard it somewhere in H town for game? Montrose area but will go anywhere good inside 610. Doomed either way.

In Htown, 2011 scene of #3 for the holiday weekend. Any fellow fans heading out to catch this FS1 national game? In Montrose but would uber. I know Christian's Tailgate in mid town will have. Bonus: my class of '11 UConn grad daughter will be mobile with. She is local. Go BEastly Huskies!

I really think the Blue Demons may finally be figuring things out. DeWayne Peevy has been named AD effective Sept 1. He comes from KY where he was Associate AD; but was the hoops guy as far as admin duties and Squid actually gives him very nice kudos and thinks DU got a good one. Certainly has...

Love catching up on the women here and have for a long time BUT The MBB has disappeared? Completely missing from my list of forum topics. I have no idea... Cannot imagine having been banned. Only a fan for 45 years. Anybody? Mods? HELP!
