    Stringer not with team

    I'll just make this one last post, and then I'll stop because this isn't the place, nor do I really want to get too into it with a random stranger on the internet. First, I can't find a single article from a reputable source telling me that non-N95 masks are 0% effective in stopping the spread...

    Stringer not with team

    Wow. Taking measures (especially simple ones) to try to stop the spread of an illness and potentially save lives is comical to you? So if a mask isn't 100% effective, we shouldn't even bother? It boggles my mind how so many people think like this. Really, just... wow.

    Iowa Game Thread

    Really nice comeback! They pulled it together. 40-42 at the half. Diamond had a chance to tie it with a last minute steal, but was off with the layup. Let's keep up the hustle, ladies!

    My first look at Diamond - what an exciting player! Looking forward to the years ahead with her on board.

    Iowa Game Thread

    First game I'm watching this year - maybe I shouldn't have! RU looks like a mess on defense, and Iowa simply cannot miss from 3.

    Laney makes CT Sun roster!

    I read on the rebkell board that she may have been cut by Phoenix before training camp even started because it happened almost immediately. It was suggested that maybe she did not pass the initial physical, though I'm not sure if that is indeed what happened. I can't find any info on the...

    Cappie vs Griner

    I was watching the game, and I had no clue what Cappie did to earn the ejection... It really looked like she was simply the recipient of Griner's hand to her face, and then she got tossed. It's possible she said something that was not audible, but is that worthy of an ejection? It made no...

    3 point shooter for next season?

    Well, I know of at least one player who developed her 3-point shot just this year after only attempting a couple (and not making any) last year -- Kahleah Copper. So it can be developed. It's probably a combination of things, one of which is definitely putting in the time and practice.

    I took Geno's advice

    Personally, I always welcome the perspective of fans of other teams. I appreciate Ewecon's comments on this board, and I often agree with him(?). Separately, I enjoy watching UConn play, and I actually find myself rooting for them a lot of the time. It's hard not to admire their game, and you...

    Ohio State game thread

    Tough loss after being tied at half time. That third quarter killed us. Looking at the stats, we really didn't play all that poorly. 49% shooting, 42.9% from 3-point range, only 14 turnovers (not great, but not *bad*), and we were only out-rebounded by 4. We were simply the weaker team. I...
