    Penn State Cyclones

    Been saying since last summer that anyone expecting PSU to contend for anything this season was kidding themselves. Didn't matter, kept hearing national pundits (Cowherd for one) call PSU their darkhorse for a CFP birth and natty, just because they had a relatively weak conference schedule...

    ***** Iowa vs Washington Game Thread*****

    And this is why you decide on a QB and then f*cking stick with it. Different throwing styles, different timing, different arm strength/zip on passes, different everything.

    Now that defenses know Miles folds when met with a little defensive pressure I'm pretty sure she'll regress next season. Her finish to the season and into the playoffs when opponents were actually D-ing her up was putrid. I don't think I've ever seen an MVP whose coach decided to bench them for...

    Yep. And I forgot to add that White doesn't come close to commanding the respect among players that Phil did. Carter wouldn't give two sh*ts what she had to say about a situation.

    Phil Jackson and MJ had the gravitas to hold Rodman's behavior in check. Chicago had already won 3 NBA titles and Rodman knew with that team and that coach he would be in line for more if he checked the crazy at the door. Plus Rodman was smart and didn't have a history of ruining team chemistry...

    Time to retire the black pants (at least for the rest of the season)

    That's a good point. I think that's probably a part of why I feel strongly about the solid black pants just looking dumb with the traditional home jerseys. There's one pant and only one pant that it goes with and that's the gold with the thick black stripe. It's been the visual hallmark for 55+...

    Time to retire the black pants (at least for the rest of the season)

    The all black pants with the traditional home jerseys just looks stupid. The sleeves on the jerseys are too busy to be paired with the solid black pants. You can't just cram a pair of alt design pants with jerseys that weren't designed to go with them. So dumb. Plus, I do believe in juju, and...

    None of this is going to matter unless and until the WNBA ponies up and brings in actual full-time professional referees who aren't largely comprised of angry, petty, jealous women of color who are just itching to T CC up and foul her out of games. As long as we have these sh*tty, part-time...

    They tagged CC with 5 fouls in game one and 6 fouls in game two. Will be interesting to see if the refs try to foul her out again tonight.

    34-18 FT disparity with the advantage to the road team is insane. You can't tell me some of these refs don't have it out for CC. In their first two playoff games v. the Aces they've called 11 fouls on her. They've literally almost fouled her out of both.

    Why is Miles not playing? She only has 17 minutes.

    ***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***

    It's funny. I've heard so much about how CC gets that special kind of love from the refs... meanwhile in their first two playoff games she's been called for 11 fouls.

    same CBS announcers as last week

    Maybe Nessler will devote a little time this week to learning how to pronounce Vonnahme. Was kind of embarrassing how he referred to Iowa's best TE as "the tight end".

    Refs putting in overtime to preserve the series for the Aces. Glad it didn't work out for them. Aces shot 10 more FTs tonight as the road team. Lol. Thursday it'll probably be 30.
