Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 5333167, member: 11664"] I'd love to see many many more UConn player connections made by playing with the CONNECTICUT Sun some day in the future. But I'm not interested at all if they're not going to stay in the state. Perhaps someday there will be an inside pipeline of UConn players to the Sun which would only have a spinoff effect from UConn's popularity. Just imagine if Paige ever signed with the Sun, or Stewie. Plus more. This could really have a snowball effect that would be too much of an opportunity for the WNBA to refuse to capitalize on. It could certainly go a long way toward making CT truely the basketball capital of the world in more than name only, and concerning more than just the NCAA. No one can predict the future but like Gov. Lamont says in his new commercial, "If you can dream itt then you can make it in CT." We should all hope that the Sun can continue to make basketball history in CT, whether by hook or by crook. They were the 1st WNBA ream to turn a profit. It's the WNBA that's dirt in my book since Hartford is not a true relocation. If the WNBA wants to play that way then I'm all for the the state making them an offer and sicing Bluementhal on them too. [/QUOTE]
