2. My father was at the Final 4 and Championship Mens games
Edited on Thu Dec-09-04 01:10 PM by ChavezSpeakstheTruth
My family (and everybody else in CT) have been diehards since I can remember. It was the greatest sports event of my life.

I bring it up now because I just found this forum!

14. Different? No! I liked the 'Cuse ever since I was 6
at first it was cause I like the mascot then I started watching, liked them and they've been my team ever since.

15. Yeah baby!
Edited on Mon Dec-13-04 11:52 AM by skippysmom
I live in Mass but grew up in CT and I love the Huskies. I even subscribe to the $40 Hoop streams so I can watch the UConn women on CPTV.

It's not going to be an easy year...but I still have hope.
