Message: [QUOTE="Guapo, post: 2390224, member: 8179"] I like UConn because I want my alma mater to be the best that it can be at all things, including basketball. I'm happy when we beat Cuse and I'm happy when a professor receives major recognition. I'm happy when we beat Georgetown and I'm happy when a program receives a significant grant. I'm happy when we win national championships and I'm happy when we move up in academic rankings. It's difficult to put into words, but the school and the athletic program are totally and completely intertwined. I realize with the pro teams I root for, I am essentially rooting for laundry (and I do so unapologetically). With UConn sports, it goes beyond team colors; they are representing an essential life experience with intrinsic value and worth for all the alumni and anyone who calls, or has called, Connecticut home.
