I didn’t say I was for always agreeing I figured the dislike button was safer than being blunt like I have a habit of being?? I was replying to @Zanzman

Wasn’t sure but did read that wayI was agreeing with you
Perhaps not, but it does make others wonder why you would laugh at the misfortune of a close friend?Recently a close friend of mine lost a championship chess match in Chicago, and I laughed. Does this make me a bad person too?

I think we are viewing Kara Wolters critique through todays politically correct lens. 10 years ago nobody would have blinked an eye. We are entirely to sensitive today any kind of criticism not allowed. It borders on rediculous you can't please everyone. I appreciate people who say what they feel even if I do not agree.After Louisville's loss to SC, I saw Walz embracing and comforting Engstler, and in the Presser gave her a heartfelt sendoff. I've never seen this side of him before, and must admit to a better appreciation and understanding of his success.
Tara is Tara - one of the all-time greats - and after the loss in which her team played well below potential, and in no small part due to UConn defense, she gave a shout-out to her graduating seniors, especially to Lexie Hull who had uncharacteristically low scoring success and more turnovers. I believe she said she wouldn't trade Lexie for any other player anywhere!
Geno, without a doubt in my mind the GOAT, came a distant 3rd among the three in his post SC Presser. I don't recall hearing any sendoff for Evina, Christyn, or Liv. If for no other reason, he surely knows they have WBB and other pro BB expectations. What positive words did he say for their futures? If I missed it, I'll be ready to apologize. No, I haven't won 11 championships, but as reasonably knowledgeable about human nature, I can't see how this helps future recruiting. While I read CW saying Geno "broke her" (not sure of the context), that surely doesn't help.
Add to it Kara Walters critique, as discussed in another thread, and regardless how right her views might be, how is it helpful to UConn WBB? This is unexpectedly disappointing!
Bollocks.Someone likes what you have posted = they agree with your statement(s)
Somebody gives your comment a dislike = The reader disagrees with what you have written.
Most people, it seems, reserve dislikes for strenuous disagreement.
It was sarcasm. Just like many of these post criticizing Geno for not hugging and consoling his playersPerhaps not, but it does make others wonder why you would laugh at the misfortune of a close friend?
