This is way off the subject of basketball, but could someone from LC tell me how the Givens' (father or grandfather) is?  He had an episode at the game on Saturday, and we were just wondering if he is all right, it reminds me that its just a game.  We have been thinking of their family.  Yes, I'm still here and keeping up, and keeping quiet.  It's very difficult for me, (to be quiet), but I still attend games, and have brought my granddaughter.  She loves basketball by the way, better watch out, she'll be dribbling before you know it.

I'm here, I really haven't gone away and I still keep up....I just have not physically been to a game yet, so I can't voice my opinion because  I haven't actually seen it with my own eyes! I have listened to some games on the radio, but right now high school b-ball is taking up most of my days.  Wow the east is kicking some butt and taking names.  What goes around, comes around.  They obviously are hungry, and maybe we have gotten a little complacent.  Makes for some great conference play.  I hope to get to games after the first of the year, and see WHAT is going on. Till then "Merry Christmas" to everyone.

Missed my first HPU game in Bwood playing my team in nine years. Hated to, but I've had the crud and would hate to infect all my favorite fans...yeah right. Heard part of it on the radio, sounded like a really good game. Would have loved to have been there. Its hard to go to every game when your "connection" isn't there, but I still follow the teams closely.  Love the girls, love the game. LIB MUST win these next two games, they can't have any let down. TLU has been playing some very close games, they could slip up and beat anyone.  And we never play well at Schriener, we manage to pull wins out, but the first half is generally pretty close.  Work hard ladies, this is when it counts.......

That's what we get for beating each other up.  It will be tough considering the losses to break into the top 25. But polls don't mean anything, so they tell me.....

Looks like all ball to me......

Sometimes, I hate it when I am right, and my predictions about 2-3 losses may be true at least in the West.  I have not seen every game, but have seen the biggest portion of the in town games, but still believe in the LIB.  Where is everybody on this board?? All the old stand bys have seemed to gone quiet.........except of course for Ralph.  Where oh where is dballa, jacket84, calhsu, everybody gets quiet when they aren't kicking a##### and taking names.  Even me....

Oh and another of my two cents....I hate this schedule, where there is limited practice because of finals, most of the students have gone home, and we play one of the biggest rivals on a Monday night with no games the week before. Then at the end of the schedule you do the turn around thing and play the other big rival right before tournament time twice. There should be a better way. And polls still suck. And now that I got that off my chest.....Merry Christmas, be safe.

This board is extremely quiet these days. After watching and listening to the LIB games, this could be an interesting year. The east is stronger than it has been in a couple of years. LA, Miss College, UTT and UTD are really gonna be tough.  LIB has 3 down 1 to go for now on the east side.  The teams in the west are still tough and Monday HSU and MCM will go at it.  HPU is vulnerable I am sure they are looking for complete chemistry with a new coach and graduating their core group last year but they will still be tough, especially at home.  Any team getting to the tourney I bet will have at least 2 or 3 losses.  Last Saturday against UTT we missed our starting post and Callie Williams was ill and did not play, (but we still won) so hopefully they have recovered and will be ready for Monday.  I would love to go through the west and east undefeated just don't know that it will happen. But you know I believe..
