Happy New Year to the best group of UConn fans in the cybersphere. It is a joy to be an admin on this site. And that is because of each of you. We are a small band of loyal Huskies fans who is more like family a lot of times. And only a slightly dysfunctional family at that.
When we created this venture 6 years ago I was a little worried about the amount of time being Admin would demand. I reflected on another site and thought "am I ready for this?" We intentionally made our rules a little looser, allowing a little more heated discussions to take place - albeit moving off the main board into Pickin' Bones. We didn't want to be as heavy handed as another board many of us left. And not as protective of fans of other teams. There have been very few instances that have required intercession. And only a handful that have been permanently banned. Of those, the vast majority were folks who joined and then posted nothing but non-UConn related material or where it was clear there was a personal vendetta being waged.
Thank you, each of you, for behaving like mature adults and when there is disagreement it is mostly respectful and free of unnecessary belittling of another persons point of view. That makes being an admin here easy!
May 2021 bring each of us good health (PLEASE!), much joy, a return to normalcy (or whatever will qualify in the post-pandemic world) and another national championship trophy for the UConn Huskies if the fates be in our favor.

Or at least a FF! And before we get to that, let's hope for a season and for a tournament. Happy New Year. And a special shout out in thankfulness for our Admins!
