Message: [QUOTE="tomcat, post: 5139124, member: 961"] Here's why, aside from pure masochism: I'm sure you remember (though newer BYers may not) the days when fans went to most games -- which were 40-point destructions of opponents -- to watch something we considered not a competitive basketball game, but performance art. We all knew who would win (at least most of the time). But we were watching to see HOW they would win -- what wonderful sequenc of passes Maya or Stef or Renee, or whoever, would come up with. When that's the way you like to watch your games, you look for any imperfection at all that might keep the current edition of the team from performing in the way you were used toi seeing. Were we spoiled? Hell, yes. are we likely to see a team like those old ones again soon? Nope, if for no other reason than the competition is better and there are probably 12 high-0quality programs out ther gatteing top recruits (insteads of 3 or 4, like there were back then). Times have changed, as they always do. That doesn't mean that UConn fans change as quickly, For my money, it's one of the most interesting parts of being a UConn WCBB fan. [/QUOTE]
