Just got home. Fine game and a couple special occurrences.

[Kibitzer]

First the game. I defer to my many knowledgeable BY colleagues to provide expert analysis. I will only say for now that: (1) I was eyewitness to seeing three UConn players with 5 points each before the game was 5 minutes old; and (2) I also saw UConn's second unit commit two shot-clock violations (second half, late) as they tossed the ball around the perimeter with no one cutting through the lane. So much for that.

I met a young fellow from Ossining, Marcello, a close friend of and classmate of Saniya's. After we did our version of NASCAR tryouts (I was the pace wheelchair), he met many Boneyarders at halftime. Now, you will hear it here first! I am reliably authoritatively informed that Ms Chong's nickname is "Ni" (pronounced "nye").

Also at halftime received the gift of a special cap from a fellow Boneyarder, Geno-ista to you. He is part-owner of Restigouche River Lodge, a high-end site for avid trout fishers. They often host disabled veterans for a free week to include a package that is valued in thousands of dollars. As we approach Veterans Day, let me give my best salute and loudest shout-out to our Geno-ista for his generous and superlative support of some of our most deserving young vets.

Alsoo met Ni's coach (Ricci) and understand why he will never ever have a bad hair day.
