Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Tuesday, April 22, 2008

When people *cough me and most every other fan of women's basketball* complain about the coverage of women's basketball, we tend to look with envy at the state of Connecticut.

"The Horde" as it is lovingly (and occasionally dismissively -- though I think it's out of jealousy) called blankets both UConn and the Sun. Consider the roll call sent in by my favorite flunkie beat writer Ned:
Roll call
* Hartford Courant (John Altavilla)
* New Haven Register (Jim Fuller)
* Norwich Bulletin (Matt Stout)
* Waterbury Republican-American (Roger Cleveland - the paper is about 72 miles from the reservation)
* Willimantic Chronicle (Rich Zelusky)
* Mel Greenberg (got lost on the way to work, I guess)
* Ann Miller (spmsportspages.com)
* The local radio person
* Someone that nobody had ever seen before
* New London Day (Mike DiMauro and Ned Griffin)
