Anyone willing to help a new fan?!

[jude_sports82]

Hi I'm Jude and have very recently got into basketball and more particularly women's bb having moved to Louisville, KY. I'd love to meet some INTENSE fans of the game and get to chat about it. I realise I'm on a Uconn forum but I love the interest in the womens game here and really respect the team. I have adopted Louisville as my team but I am so looking forward to tonights game. I went to the Louisville/Maryland game and it was an awesome atmosphere. Ok, I have no idea if I will receive any replies. If I do and I reply with "wrong" basketball lingo then forgive me, I'm British!

[jude_sports82]

Welcome Jude. We're OK with you being British - as long as your'e not IRISH

 

[jude_sports82]

LOL that's funny. Love the intensity. Thank you for the welcome, despite me being a new Cards fan

I am honestly still trying to get my head around all the conferences etc. I am used to the English "soccer" scene. American sports are so different but VERY exciting. Basketball is SO intense!

Welcome to the Boneyard Jude. It is a UConn forum but as you alluded to you get a fair amount of general WCB talk here also.

hey! No, sadly I don't. But I am trying to learn how to play. First step: Get basketball hoop at my house! I am so excited about it.

Ha...this is going to be a very interesting board to be on for the next few days...

 

[Sargassoc]

What's it like on here during off season?

We moan and groan about no having college basketball to watch. Some folks report on the WNBA. I come here to keep up with recruiting information and schedules and sightings of players/coaches. And we speculate endlessly about UConn issues/ideas/ situations we know nothing about.

Fav footie team???

 

[UConnChapette]

I'll join in with the welcome sentiments. You will learn a lot here, not just about UConn but many other teams as well. We are generally a civil bunch. Sometimes a bit sarcastic, but rarely malicious.

Off season, there is still a lot of activity but not necessarily only about basketball. Wire Chief's tests are always a fun diversion.

Hope you stick around.

LOL haha, ill look forward to it! Anyone go from this board to other sports boards or talk about other sports on here? I'm a BIG sports fan in general really.

Welcome Jude.

There is a Louisville women's board at a site called Cardinal Authority. I'm not trying to shoo you away - you are most welcome here - just want to give you another place to visit.
