Well that’s decidedly inconvenient. I missed the 1950s when games were scheduled at times that were convenient for me! And children were polite and only partook in good, clean, wholesome fun.

Maybe he meant the women's game today. A nice 1 vs 2 game at noon

Also interesting to note they delayed the women's AP poll a day because of the UConn/South Carolina game

And when 17 year old high school athletes make a "commitment," they don't back out because the coach was fired.

Are you not in the Bahamas?
And your point is? ;)
The boat trips have been among the highlights. I felt like royalty arriving in the marina among the world-class yachts. It’s pretty idyllic.

Losing sucked and I have lots of thoughts on what we saw in the second half, but knowing we were leaving to meet our boatman who would bring us to our villa took the sting out of it.

Second half was sad, and of course because I bought my ticket last minute I was sitting way too close to Gamecock fans.

I'm sure it was breath taking! Had a similar experience in Portofino a few years back, amazing what those yachts look like up close and personal.

Not sure if you posted on women's board, have not had a chance to go there as of yet but will check out soon to see what was the consensus of that game since I was unable to watch or listen to it.

Enjoy the trip and hopefully the men can brighten the basketball side of it.

We got out-toughed. We had them on their heels late in the second half and started playing like we expected them to roll over. They closed the half strong and came out with intention in the second half. We didn’t. Refs didn’t help, but they weren’t the difference. Paige tried to do too much, too late, and Geno being Geno tried to teach her and all of them a lesson by letting them lose. He was pissed at her, and he berated Azzi for not shooting and I don’t know if she saw the court again. I’ve seen this movie before. It’s a long season. I suspect they will play two more times this season.

It‘s not hard to see why the Caribbean causes one to forget their troubles. It’s hard to be annoyed at whatever while snorkeling and drinking rum drinks. I’d suggest some rum but you’re in the one island nation that doesn’t make it.

Down here in the Bahamas, the 12 noon start really sucks. Takes away primetime pool and beach time, makes us run around every day

And the men are playing day games too, although 2:45 is better than 12:00

I know I know, first world problems
