Agreeing with both Semper and Rocky. I'm all for peace in our little kingdom, unless we are having a spirited basketball discussion. Agree with all of you... the one thing that unites us is admiration and loyalty to the young ladies playing for Geno.... and that Tennessee sucks... "and that Tennessee sucks..." What David said!!! GO HUSKIES!!!

Admins/mods get paid over there I think. And Temery’s post reveals the real reason for closing the cesspool. Ad revenue is impacted. As Kim says, it is the almighty dollar. Which is also why they are so welcoming to, and protective of, fans of other teams. The more members, the more they can charge for those ad contracts. This was one of the main reasons I went with a free forum when building the site. And that I am cheap. You can opt to go ad-less here if you want, but I don’t want to be beholden to others to monitor content...and don’t feel the need to be overtly welcoming to opposing fans. We are a UConn women’s basketball forum, first, last and always. Not that I disagree with the politics ban because in this current environment things get out of control quickly. Most people here are respectful of each other, and are able to exercise self control and stay on topic of basketball. I know we have members across the political spectrum, but staying on the focus of our wonderful UConn Huskies keeps this a safe, happy place for everyone. Thank you all for being respectful contributors - and Husky fans. And thank you for all that you do for this forum and us as a community of fans Agreed !

All I know is there are a lot of differing opinions here and the one thing we can agree with is that I am always right.
Night all...

Still pisses me off that we are lowering ourselves to play them.

Still pisses me off that we are lowering ourselves to play them. I get that, Meyers. I was right there with you. Here's how I've decided to view it: There are some vocal and obnoxious fans who perpetuate ancient lies and misinterpret other information. Those pinheads are effectively never going to be gone. Best to ignore them and let karma take care of them. All of the administrators and coaches involved in the turmoil from back then are all gone from Knoxville. Many had ignominious departures for reasons that had nothing to those vile behaviors aimed toward UCONN and Geno. What we didn't know then was that the horrors of Alzheimer's were probably already impacting Pat. Further, she certainly didn't write that whole complaint on her own, and may have been gullible (again possibly from the disease) enough to be convinced of those falsehoods by others. Studies show that holding a grudge takes more energy and does more damage to yourself than forgiving ... or at least forgetting. Further, rarely does anything to harm the grudgee(s). So, I've decided ... for me ... the best answer is to let that old stuff go. They're just another team in and out of the bottom of the rankings.
