Time to be careful

[Blueconn]

Killing time by watching last February's game at East Carolina. Score says it was a cakewalk; visuals indicate otherwise. Heather Macy (not yet 39) is a tough, competitive cookie and it's reflected in the way her team plays. Heads up, feet moving, active hands and determined. Even when trailing by more than 35 late in the third quarter. Or late in the fourth.

The above referenced game was hard-fought. Arm bars and bumps and aggressive body language with intent...the good kind of intent.

The Pirates did not then have the talent to come close to keeping it close or even respectable. And they don't tonight. But this is one of those affairs when injuries jump up and suddenly things change. Be careful.

Ah.... man, I wish you had not gone there with the injury thing. You have 6 full hours to make this right! Light a candle, sacrifice a chicken ,something-anything to appease the gods.

We're d-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-omed!

Heather Macy is also really good at getting Technical Fouls when her team plays UConn.

Exactly, what the hell are you thinking Blue. You're not my boy anymore Blue.

More so than any team has ever been, ever, under any set of competitive circumstances.

Never believed in the mojo.

Ok, beat me til I turn National Flag Blue but here's the thing....

It ain't the mojo when your coach is Geno.
Even so, don't stub a toe.

I'll give ---Geno needs to use his players appropriately to avoid injury--but
if you play that cautiously--injuries happen.
It is good to play aggressive teams--all games won't be cake walks--slide bys.
Hope this coach gets some good recruits--she seems to have the talent to compete--now she needs players with talent.

Would that make him---Blueboy?? Was that a Musical or a horse/??

I'm not superstitious or anything--however I just threw salt over my right shoulder and while out walking--I stepped over every crack. No point taking chances ..

This is Blue BOY, by Thomas Gainsborough in 1779:

Not to be confused with the musical group Blue MAN, below:

Easy to see how they can be confused with each other........................

Uh, like, "be careful" is not in the Husky's playbook. (Sometimes I think it should be. Diving after a loose ball and crashing into sideline obstacles is not necessarily a smart play. I know why they do it, but dot dot dot.

Could you have tempted fate any more?

Ask anybody that has played any sport above a recreational level and they will all say the one time when virtually every injury occurs is when they "take a play off" and go half speed. Hopefully, the basketball gods will reward the hustle of UConn for the rest of the year,
