Do you have something against Gray? Or is she too old in your opinion? :oops:

lol. Not at all. She had a great year last year and is a very good player. I listed the players I would pick over her but I don't think she would be a bad choice at all.

Okay, I'll ask. Why the I-840 avatar?

Well.... I guess i'm one of those road geeks......... a new section of the Greensboro Urban Loop opened this past Thursday... and I figured since its the off-season.... as part of the festivities I would change my avatar to celebrate the newest highway section in the Interstate System. :D

The 3 digit 40 signs have always been my favorites like 240 in Memphis and Asheville.... 440 in Raleigh... 640 in Knoxville.......but 840 is definitely my favorite looking in the whole system.

Cuts are being made today. I’m with a lot of you. I think Pheesa being chosen is a long shot but you never know. There aren’t a ton of bigs there but given the fact she wouldn’t really contribute to the team on the court if she was chosen I’m hoping she isn’t chosen so she can continue to develop with the coaching staff instead of being on the road all of September.
 
No cuts yet! :cool:

No, I was not present at either. I’ve just been keeping up on articles posted & a couple people that were at 3 x 3. I have no idea who has played well in Seattle but I’m assuming cuts are made tonight. Expecting UConn will have 3-4 woman representing our country. Stewie, DT, Sue & Dolson if I were to guess??

Okay so here's a good trivia question for a road geek. What significance does the first digit of a 3-digit interstate number have?

"Overseas commitments and injury issues have kept some of the players in the national team pool away, but with the 6-foot-6 Fowles, 6-5 Delle Donne and Stefanie Dolson and 6-4 Stewart, it’s been daunting at times for Collier on both ends of the court.


“It’s definitely a challenge because I’m the smallest post player here, but just trying to get around them because I won’t be able to push them out of the way like some of the post players (in college),” Collier said.

In the last couple of seasons, Gabby Williams would usually draw the assignment of guarding the opposing team’s top post player. Azurá Stevens was able to help out in that department during the 2017-18 season but with both of them preparing for their professional debuts, this is a good dress rehearsal for Collier to deal with players who are 3, 4 or 5 inches taller than her.

“I’ve been doing it the last two years now so it’s probably not going to be a lot different, other than not having Gabby or Z (Stevens) on the back side, but more experience and more practice with that is always a good thing,” Collier said."

Good article.

Too easy:

Even # = Loop (connected to interstate at both ends)

Odd # = Spur (connected to interstate at only one end)

So... What is the significance of the location (right or left) of the small “Exit #” sign on top of a large green interstate exit sign indicating an upcoming exit?

Odd first digits are spurs..... even first digits are loops or bypasses......... there is one exception here in NC. When they first started the second outer loop around Raleigh... (the Raleigh Beltline is 440)... it was designated 540 .... and when they finished.... they were gonna change it to 640. Due to funding issues... construction has taken alot longer than expected... the NCDOT petitioned that they keep the 540 designation and the Feds agreed. I assume the Greensboro loop would have been named 640 instead of 840 if it were on the drawing board earlier.
