Message: [QUOTE="Bills Fan, post: 4447702, member: 8262"] It would help if the reporters covering WCBB were of the same quality as most of the men's games are. I just finished reading the Yahoo Sports coverage of the holiday games and here are a couple of things that cannot happen as we complain about the Women's games being treated as 2nd class. The women writing the story said that Nika is the first UCONN women's PG since 1999 to have three consecutive games with 3 assists or more. If that is her actual understanding then she needs to move on . As we know it was 3 games in a row with double digit assists, quite different than what was written. For non-UCONN fans reading the story, they were probably scratching their heads thinking so what-3 games in a row with 3 assists is no big deal. She also had a valid complaint about the lack of post game coverage after the UCONN v Iowa game, and that was a correct and well documented position. Again, the devil can be in the details: one of the points she stressed should have been addressed in a better ABC network wrap up was the UCONN and Azzi F. led comback in the 2nd QUARTER. For those of us watching the game I think she meant 2nd HALF. Mistakes like these just give more fodder to those wanting more equal treatment from the media. We are lucky to have a great group of Husky media in numerous CT outlets. Not so much in other, including national, outlets. [/QUOTE]
