UConn Men's Basketball under investigation

Post by gerryb323 »

Supposedly recruiting violations. May turn out to help UConn save some money anyway if they can fire Ollie for cause.

My wife doesn’t follow sports much, but along with wanting to see the Eagles win, she calls the Pats out by the playground chant: “cheater, cheater, cheater!”

We had a flood in our basement theatre due to pipe issues a few weeks ago; still not fully put back together. No big loss, since this year's super bowl is really not generating much interest in me, other than the fact that I would cheer for just about anybody playing the Patriots. No team has been more likely to break or at least bend the rules whenever they can. Then the follow the Captain Renault approach to whatever comes out.

No offense to TUPF, but I am not a fan of Philadelphia; however, I hope they win. Will not be an active viewer.

None taken.

Philly is not exactly the warm and fuzzy place for outsiders. I personally love the way the city embraces hard work, lunchpail mentality, even if we are talking about millionaire athletes.

Not saying the Eagles will beat the Pats but for this city it’s much better to be in the role of underdog. I was downtown for the last couple of days and the city is electric. Even waitstaff at a Japanese restaurant we were in were wearing Eagles gear.
