Or, she acted like a professional and had her partner's back. (while they were on the air, anyway) Check her Twitter feed

I don't do twitter. And I fail to see why she wasn't allowed to refute a stupid statement. She probably makes a lot less money too... is that the real reason?

I'm half inclined to call for a wholesale call-in or e-mail in to CBS Sports to voice our concern en masse over their inept and embarrassing anchor selection.

Here you go. You have to read the emoji also. (hover over it)

Swin had to have been caught off guard by the disparaging comments from the moron Gottlieb. After all, she never could have anticipated CBS Sports seating her next to a smarmy shmuck of Gottlieb's magnitude who knew nothing about WCBB and who cares about our sport even less.

HEY GOTTLIEB...

Read the game thread.

Read the game thread.

Maybe I should have read it before posting... watched on dvr, and didn't want to miss Swin but otherwise was on FF through halftime.

Do you want your comments to go into a black hole or to all the folks who follow him.

Feel free to google the folks you're looking for....

I was with you on everything -- I don't like MCBB- but I do like the NBA. Steph Curry is great to watch. I love watching skill. Our UCONN women's team has it- I bleed for the men- but overall I'm with you - I hate the men's game. Not the mcbb fault. Kids leave early. Can't blame them for doing it either.

Honestly, I thought Swin did a decent job of rebuttal in the postgame. Gottlieb was arguing (rather nonsensically, tbh) that there isn't enough parity in women's basketball, and Swin said it was up to the other women's programs to reach the bar that UConn has set. She even said she thought other teams (she specifically mentioned South Carolina) might have as much talent as UConn, but that UConn was still the best team because of their experience, teamwork, etc. So, short of calling Gottlieb out for being dumb or unknowledgeable about the women's game, which might've been true but wouldn't have been very professional, I think she more or less did what she could.

Next time someone complains to you about how few games in women's basketball are competitive, just agree and tell them that is why you stopped watching college football - Alabama and their ilk go 13-1 outscoring their opponents 2.3 to 1. They just beat the #3 ranked team 38-0. At least women's basketball is a little competitive!

Great Point! What makes the disparity between team talent so great in UCONN's case is that there are so few elite programs in the American Conference. If Football wasn't controlling conference membership UCONN would be in a power conference in WBB. However there is still the "problem" of UCONN winning national championships every year!

Great. I only saw the halftime segment, and she let him have his way for the most part. Nice to know she stood up later.

I do not have any respect or high regard for CBSSN channel. I have the feeling that they always want to stick it to 'UConn Women Basketball', any chance they can. Never forgot the interview given with Maya Moore's father, who abandoned the family, but showed up when she was on top. The impression I got is that the family wants nothing to do with him. This personal issue should not have been brought up & discussed at the UConn game, Maya was playing in. They have no shame !

Check out Doug Gottlieb's wikipedia page vs Swin's. Good for some laughs !!

 

[huskyd]

Yes, Doug did sound as if doing homework isn't necessary for his well-paid job. Having to fill the air waves 24/7 brings out a bunch of pointless yakking. The game announcers did, to their credit, discover that even watching UConn dismantle an opponent can be enjoyed as can any work of beauty. Can anyone put this into Latin: Win, Win Big, Win Pretty?

 

[mhshuskies]

I loved Swin's response: "well you go to college to get an education and win a NC and in the case of UCONN you are going to win at least one national championship". No other coach or recruiter can say that!

HEY GOTTLIEB...

It was a classless display of throw back male disparagement. He's probably spending his day getting high fives from similar smucks at CBS Sports.
