I thought it was just Kia that was defensive about injuries.... add Gabby to that list.

I don't want to talk about my headaches either. Talking about them may just be a trigger for her.

I had never noticed the "Olympic" Banners before. Nice.

Love Gabby. Thought she looked kinda beat. Crossing my fingers for her.

Doesn't Meg (that's what Kia called her on another interview) always hit the right note? She came to UConn completely buying in. That's 24 karat gold to Geno.

I noticed the banners, but didn't know they were the years the players participated in the Olympics. I seen it today, as I watched the videos.

I was actually stumped since the years were not "normal" and 4 years apart. Then clarity.

I didn't figure it out until I seen A'ja Jones banner .

These young people are soooo easy to like and respect. It’s pure fun to watch them play, even when they are not at their absolute best. When they are on top of their game, it’s just a thing of beauty.

I noticed that too - hope she's going to be OK as time goes on. Not quite the same bubbly, smiling, Gabby that I have got used to over the past few years.

A pearl from Gabby: "It's only difficult if you make it difficult."
True of so many things in life.

YES.....not Megatron, or some other silly name that gets invented here. These kids tend to call each other simple, usually single syllable, variations of their real names. Something they can shout quickly in practice or a game. You can bet Geno isn't wasting time on extra syllables if he doesn't have to. My apologies in advance to those who invent & use such monikers - my pet peeve. Just don't get it.

Not invented here. You only need to watch the first 8 seconds:

Thanks, I stand corrected....still don't like such silliness though. Grumpy cuz I couldn't get home in time to watch the game I guess.
