So I'm watching Houston game replay and notice Kia has a pony tail. You can't change the hair! It has to be the same game to game!!

She actually played pretty well in the first half with the ponytail. Any bad mojo was for the overall team. Maybe she can change her hair as a senior. Moriah did it!

I've been having a problem as I get older. The truth. Whenever I see an interview with darn near any young lady, especially these young basketball players, from any team, I just want to pinch their cheeks. Then I start to tear up. I swear, it's getting ridiculous. I'm starting to feel really old.

Please note that she got the telegram you sent. She changed back to the "killer bun" at halftime. ;-)

I noticed that too. Which makes me think it was just a matter of her running behind schedule before the game and didn't have time to get it put up the way she likes it.

Actually all she did was straighten her hair. I'm thinking, the bun would mess up the straightening which is why she had it in a ponytail to begin with. On Wednesday, it was back to the curls and bun

Not a great believer in mojo, I liked the pony tail. I probably shouldn't admit this here for a number of reasons, but I liked Candace Parker as a sort of blonde/red head.

Before the game started, Kia was presented an award with Geno for getting her 1000th point, and Kia was wearing the ponytail. This was done on the side of the court with a few photographers. I think Kia wanted the photo taken with her ponytail and then, when she had a chance, she could bun it up again, which she did at halftime.

Svetlana changed hers as a senior - IMO didn't work for her. DT never changed hers - even to this day. She knows who she is. Stay with the bun

Loved Svetlana's corn rows, great look on her - but I'm also partial to pixie-hairstyles, so loved her 2000 look, too. I just liked Abrosimova - a lot. :rolleyes:

I think they should all stick with the bun except Kyla and Molly. But I think the starting 5 should each try a different color, because I still have trouble telling them apart at times. My 32" CRT TV may have something to do with that, however.

I liked the pony tail because it made it a lot easier to tell her apart from Saniya. Personally, I prefer the frizz to the straightened hair. I had frizzy hair that suddenly went straightish when I was about 25 or 26. That sucked.

I don't get it - I have no problem at all telling all the players apart. Just seems so obvious who they are by how they move, how they look. I'm not even a hockey fan, but it was obvious who Wayne Gretaky was just by the way he skated. No numbers on the back required. Julian Edelman doesn't need to wear #11, Gronk doesn't need to wear #87. The UConn girls don't look anything alike to me.

Imagine Dee with a ponytail and Sue with a bun. That just doesn't compute at all!

There is a proper procedure for hairstyle changes.

-A request must be submitted three weeks in advance of the intended change. All requests shall certified upon arrival by Chris Dailey.

-All changes must be field tested tested against teams beaten by a minimum of 40 points.

If the team fails to beat the opponent by GS>PGS/2+/-5 the hairstyle will be declared unacceptable and mojo hostile.

If the damage due to a change in hairstyle is self evident :

- Players must come to the game prepared to reverse the change immediately at half time or sooner or sit out games until the damage can be reversed.

Remember the damage to mojo is a collective phenomenon, not individual. A players game can flourish yet undermine the effectiveness of team.

That definitely end the streak. Got to respect the mojo.

Must be a troll trying to weaken UCONN's super powers. ;)

Do you think wearing a ponytail instead of a bun would hinder Katie Lou's game?
