So A'ja is playing in the paint? Doesn't she label herself a guard and wants to play the perimeter strictly in college? Or has she finally realized she is destined for the paint?

Like how she gets the rebound from the center positio. And becomes the point in transition. Missed an alley oop. Just got back to back assists.

Thanks for running commentary!

Mescarlett - lovely posts and glad you have joined up.
Agree we are blessed with CD - Geno is great (and a blessing as well) but I do not think there is a better second in command of any BB team in college or the pros, men's or women's.
As for that Deep South issue - I am surprised with my fellow boneyarders most of whom were born and bred in NE (or at least I have always assumed so.) I am an original Storrsite and as every true Connecticut resident knows, The South begins somewhere around the Rutgers campus and runs on for what seems like forever. By the time you cross the Delaware river you are well and truly in the Middle South and once you cross the Potomac that Deep South feeling descends like a heavy fog.
Of course when I was living in NYC for a little while, 12 Ave seemed like the midwest to me and I used Rutgers campus as the demarcation line for the West Coast.

As you can see from my user name I am now living in the Southern Hemisphere, not too far from Antarctica.

And now back to the subject matter - enjoyed visiting you blog - and totally agree re Kim. I find her fashion sense a blast as it veers from the sublime to that other place of which you refer.

Thanks for checking out the blog! That's so funny about your description of the South. I don't think many of us would even remotely consider adding New Jersey into our classification. Chris Dailey may be one of the few good things that I like that has come out of New Jersey (if you are from NJ, I apologize!) I've been up to CT before (Mystic, Bridgeport -- basically drove I-95 the whole state) ... it is very beautiful up in the clear blue yonder, haha!!

Mescarlett, you should try to come up early in the season, like for the Stanford game in Hartford. You won't have to do much driving.

Geez, it's been a while since I've seen one Boneyarder ask another out on a date, in full view of everyone. :)

Ok, I'm jealous.

The timing is so odd, I just have to mention - I got an email from a Boneyarder today, agreeing to be my date. Not my wife, so don't tell anyone. I was invited to the Governors Mansion, and my wife wasn't interested.

Match.com has nothing on the Boneyard. :)

Starting to sound like ancient Pompei around here.

Didn't realize you were old enough to have been in ancient Pompei, Br'er Bear. I'll bet they taught you some new words when ol' Vesuvius went off, huh? Now THAT was a blast!
 
Sorry for the spellung issues. Typing with one eye open. Aja had about 45 her last game. Of note her team arrived late as they couldn't get out of school in time. Therefor they have been playing in the loser bracket against other teams that have lost, thus avoiding the tougher games that they could have had.

I'm 6'3 she has to be 6'5 saw her shot and miss a few. 3's looks like a shot she can make played post on defense and both post and wing and some pg on offense.

One can drive all day in Texas and still be in Texas. The only way that works in Connecticut is if you are horribly lost or during a blizzard.

or you run out of gas on a country back road with no cell service

I sure hope that's only hypothetical and not something from your personal experience. :(

This wins the award for the most random thread ever at this point. Well done all (myself included, I suppose).

The Final Four was along the banks of the Mississippi, so a meandering thread seems apropos.

I think I'm twice as guilty as you. I'm just happy that thread hijacking is not a federal offense.

It was a roller coaster ride and the season all in one swerving left and right, up and down, speeding up and stalling before plunging onward again. Whew!
