      Good.

      I think it's a hell of an accomplishment and they are great players but I'm sick and tired of hearing about this. People saying that it shouldn't be compared to the UCLA streak and then comparing it to their streak. I'm just tired of hearing about it and all the **** that goes with it. Congrats to UCONN but glad it's over.

        Just watched a clip from the post-game interview with Geno and a couple of his players including Maya Moore. Gotta say, I don't warm up to Geno's personality (as far as one can judge something like that from TV interviews) but Maya Moore is a class act in addition to being a heckuva player. She said all the right things in the interview and gave credit to Stanford as was due.

        Wow, Stanford was the last team to beat UConn...the Stanford bookends!

          On court announcer was interviewing the Stanford coach and every other question was about UConn and the streak. When he asked if a streak like that could happen again, she had had enough and just simply said "Tonights about Stanford." and left.

            I saw the same thing. I was glad Stanford's coach said what she said. Jimmy Dykes (interviewer) must have forgotten that Stanford is not a 2nd rate program, and that this Stanford win was not a huge upset. I thought Stanford's coach was very classy in how she came across, but she did the right thing to say what she did.

              The 500 or so fans ( and that may be generous ) that follow the Lynx will be able see Moore play in Minneapolis as they have the #1 choice in the WNBA draft.

                The Lynx average attendance was 7,622 last season. The Lynx historical average has is 7,479. Aside from the initial year there the attendance was over 10,000, the attendance has been fairly stable.

                  It is all about Stanford. Stanfordalso ended Penn State's 109 match winning streak in volleyball this past season. Go Cardinal.
