Stanford women advance to the Final Four |
|
by beating Iowa State 74-53 they're in their second straight and eighth final four in their history. This is the same team that the east coast biased selection committee saw fit to deny a #1 seed, despite a ranking of #2 in the nation. Unfortunately, barring an upset by ASU tomorrow, UConn will be next.

1. You are a Stamford Alum? |
|
Otherwise why are you not rooting for Pat Summitt's team?

I grew up about 10 miles from the Stanford campus. So, under the REAL sports fan rules, I am eligible to be a Stanford fan.
On Edit: it's "Stanford" not "Stamford"

3. Uh, Upton didn't attend Tennessee .. but like he said, he grew |
|
up 10 miles from Palo Alto, as opposed to the 2,000 miles from Dallas you're from.
Although, I'm not sure anyone really knows where you're from since you're "teams" are all over the country.

7. I don't know if he did, however it's perfectly acceptable |
|
to root for college teams from where you're from.

There's a local woman on the team so I'd like to see them do well. I don't think they'll get by UConn, though.
And thanks for posting something about the Women's NCAA. There aren't many interested in it, I guess.
