I watched and then read, with some trepidation, regarding Mo's ankle "injury" . The reporting of it sounded like it "stung" but was ok. But I worry that anything affecting her speed would not be good. Anyone have an update?

The replay showed her getting the foot she was jumping off of for a lay-up getting stepped on by a helping guard (absolutely unintentional.) I think that is actually better than her having stepped an someone else foot, as it is more likely a bruise than a twist. But it is the second game where she has been a little hobbled and I think both on her right foot. She looked fine after a few minutes and played basically the whole game so I think it is not an issue.
 
Worry? Sure you can worry. I was there last night and held my breath. But my take on Mo'Jett is that she'd play on crutches if she had too. Didn't one of the coaches for another squad say that most of his kids are in "boots" when they're not on the court. I remember Steph D. and DT played those last two games injured as well. Adrenaline and good medical care (hats off to you Rosemary) will help I'm sure.
 
well, I for one, am worried. Geno would probably make a deal with Oregon State that calls for the folloeing scenario:

  • Upon tip-off, Stewie slap the ball to Mo.
  • Mo passes to a teammate left unguarded right next to the hoop, who scores a layup. Assist to Mo.
  • OSU is unguarded and allowed to score in their ensuing possession. UConn ball.
  • Mo passes to a teammate left unguarded right next to the hoop, who scores a layup. Assist to Mo. That would be Assist #649, thereby breaking D's UConn record.
  • OSU is unguarded and allowed to score in their ensuing possession. Tie ballgame.
I'm just worried about the controversy that would ensue is all...
 
I hope it's many years from now, but when the day comes, I hope UConn will see fit to put her on the wall. She is certainly a most valuable person.

Whatever you're drinking alex, please stop....;)
 
But, should you be worried? How can you be a fan and not worry. Our girls are about to attempt to stand on top of a mountain that has never been climbed. You wouldn't be human if you didn't have an occasional twinge of worry for a team you love.

But Rocky, our young women are so disciplined that they will not entertain a 4-peat construct in their minds. They will be playing for 1 discrete championship. All will be well.

Are you saying Tony C is not human, or do you just automatically exclude him from that statement?

You, sir, are a rascal, an unmitigated rascal, with a good memory and imagination! Don't know whether to scold you or toast you!;)

I'd be more reassured with a prayer Cardinal, with a liberal sprinkling of holy water. I'm a sinner and not a Catholic, but I know how to seize an opportunity when it's presented. Deal?

Um? Might this scenario have been played out in relation to another UCONN record with an injured player? I am getting older and the "Precious" details escape me.

lol, there's one poster here in particular who's still indignant at Geno 'scr_wing' over Kerry Bascom w/ that 'stunt' he set up with Harry Perretta.

There is always one right?
 
Why wasn't Mo at the post game video with Stewie and Morgan?

Flattering me with the "Cardinal" title is unnecessary, for praying is my middle name, always in a hair shirt and with self-flagellation.
Give me your address, and I'll send you the catechism.

Gus, just to be clear I assume you mean Rosemary, right? Because it won't be " many years from now" before Mo is on the wall. ;)

Yeah, you know, that self-flagellation stuff, the wooden handled whip with the steel embedded in the whatever you call them, the prostration on a rough stone floor.... On second though
 
]Not to worry - Rosemary has got it covered.[/QUOTE]
So you're saying Rosemary can play point? :)

Ha. Yes, I meant Rosemary. Guess I was a little careless. I plead sixtyish...
 
Why worry? The players have so many bumps,bruises and sprains at this time of year that if her foot isn't falling off she'll be fine. The fact she wasn't at the presser means she was already getting treatment on her ankle. Now go to sleep and have a good night's rest.

Close, but no stogie, Chief. They will be playing to win one four-minute segment at a time. :cool:

Always trying to make us feel bad by bragging about how young you are, eh Gustav?

Well . . . let's just say I'm still trying to process it. It's a coping mechanism, I guess. Ha!

Plus I was going for the play on "Fiftyish." :cool:
