Going to see my Bearcats play University of Toledo on Saturday. Won't be rooting for the home team

Boston is off to a good start, which is great.
Portland and Sacramento are not doing so hot...
I have a soft spot for Phoenix but they aren't doing spectacular either.

Before a record crowd at MSG, the UConn Women's Basketball team just beat Ohio State 81 - 50. That's 88 wins in a row - tying the UCLA Men's team regular season winning streak (1971-1974).

Tuesday night, in Hartford, against Florida State, they will try to break the record with #89.

It's been 2 years, 8 months and 13 days since they last lost.

#89

The UConn Women's Basketball team won it's 89th consecutive regular season game in Hartford this evening. They beat Florida State by 31 points.

Greg Wooden, grandson of the great coach John Wooden was present for the game. He felt someone from the family should be there to honor the record. Class act.

Go UCONN! I think it's awesome that a women's sport has set the record.

After winning 90 consecutive games, the UConn women's basketball team just lost to Stanford, 71-59.

Very appropriate, considering Stanford was the last team to beat UConn, back in 2008. The game was played in Palo Alto, and in the stands was a former Secretary of State, wearing her red sweater, cheering the Cardinal on to victory.
