Really What can you say

So as the season moves forward this year and next how will be beat a record of lets say 120-0 150-0 195-0.

ROFLMAO. We have an expression in the investment industry: "I wasn't wrong, I was early." I guess, Tony, you're thinking that may apply to you come December 2019, eh? And if we get there (something I'm not expecting, but who the heck knows) I for one wouldn't blame you if you took credit for predicting it!!

In all seriousness, you've had some great posts recently my friend.

You just agreed with my point. Lou was face guarded by her defender. No other team does that. This is not put down of Lou. The strength of this team is if you try to stop one player another will make you pay.
Stop with the " Lou is sick" excuse. Geno and the players do not use it so why do the fans? None of us are in the locker room and have no idea about injuries/sick or who is in the doghouse.
And why are some of you so sensitive and defensive of this stuff? Also can you give the other team some credit sometimes.
Good Lord. End of Rant

The game was, "syck."

Since you are familar with the Flying Queens; you must be familar with their 4 consecutive national championships. But have you placed the cart before the horse? Are you familar with Hanes Hosiery and their 102 win streak? Yeah, Hanes Hosiery! I looked this up during the 90 games win streak.

We'll beat the socks off their record.

Aggravated a previous practice (?) injury to her ankle. Last game (before SC) the announcers mentioned the ankle support she was wearing and were amazed she showed no ill effects. But, by the SC game she had somehow damaged it again.

Thank you!

Welcome aboard from another PA fan.

Thanks. I'll learn the ins and outs of the system eventually...

I watched replay last night and you can see early in first quarter she gets tripped up. You have to look for it, it happens when she's trying to get around a screen or around another player and you can clearly see she feels some pain and plays on for quite a bit of time before she gets subbed out. The commentators were flapping so much they missed it also.

Great game. Great win for a great team.

That being said, the officiating was atrocious. It didn't come across as partial to either team though, at least not to my eye.

But something needs to be done to improve WCBB officiating: better pay for a better class of referee?, training seminars? I have no solution but the problem is obvious.

Women's refs will always fail in top echelon games until the speed of play accelerates in the lower levels. Refs get Set in a pace of play. They make calls in the timing that pace allows them. When after calling a number of games at a speed one tick above high school, their pace of calls is subconsciously locked in.

When they get a top game two things happen.
1) they miss calls and they know it
2) to not miss calls they begin to guess which leads to wrong calls

The answer for me is a defined group of refs that only call top 25 teams. That will prevent more occourances like Monday night where 1 ref was clueless, 1ref swallowed the whistle and 1 was ok
