[FriarJ]

Well, the Dunkin Donuts Center may not be the most made fun of anymore.

URI's Ryan Center's court will be named Alex and Ani Court

How long before FriarJ realizes that he didn't post this on the PC board?

Seriously?

Did you get lost? type the wrong address in the address bar?

What makes you think anyone here gives a sh7t about where PC plays?

 

[FriarJ]

I'm sorry, forgot you guys care about no-one but yourselves, I thought it was funny and you might enjoy what URI named their court, no offense meant.

It's one thing if this was PC but URI? Why would any Uconn fan care about PC's biggest rival?

 

[CTGoonie]

URI is actually UConn Basketball's most played opponent (by a very wide margin) all time. The Huskies and Ram have played 145 games with UConn holding a 77-68 edge. New Hampshire is the next most played opponent with 115 games. Providence is far down the list with just 70 games played all time.

I said rival not most-played against.

The point of the post was about the sponsor for the name of the court, not the school. So whether it was Podunk U. or another New England school which most of us don't follow at all, it is kind of funny to have a court named after Alex and Ani.

Just 30 years ago URI was UConn's biggest rival

Just 30 years ago cell phones were as big as loaves of bread and the only ones tweeting were birds. Times change.

Am I the only one that thinks the Dunk is much worse than Alex and Ani? I mean Dunkin Donuts might be one of the most disgusting food franchises (well, at least in the northeast - there is a hot mess in the south when it comes to fast food franchises).

 

[gioff23]

Whoa, does that mean URI will be playing in the AAC?

 

[Fishy]

The Dunk isn't a bad name - basketball...dunk...get it?

Alex and Ani is a bad name for a married couple, but a freaking horrific name for an arena.

Sounds like a brand of cookie.

Am I the only one who has no idea who the _____ Alex and Ani are?

They are the keys to get out of the doghouse if you are married or in a relationship. learn them fast, trust me.
