Go Huskies!


Good for the New York Times for putting this story on the front page of the online edition. I'm tired of reading stories about how UConn's greatness is ruining women's basketball. They're great athletes playing phenomenally and should be honored for their accomplishments.

By the way, they are the Huskies, not the Lady Huskies.

My Brother is Famous

Not really, but he is a manager for the UConn football team, so he keeps showing up in press photos. A few weeks ago, he celebrated a touchdown against Rutgers (see photo #33 — he's the one jumping in the background). Now, he's on the Sports Illustrated website — click through to photo #9 to see the full photo of Graham talking to his new friend.

CBS: Come for the Basketball, Stay for the Comedy?

I grew up in a UConn-loving, basketball-watching family.

I am the sole NCAA basketball fan in my current household.

In exchange for enjoying the tournament, I am forced to endure a series of vile promos for Two and a Half Men where the only "joke" is that women don't like or understand basketball. It's tiresome.

I'm not even sure it's offensive. It's just embarrassingly lazy writing.
