So it is a Tuesday and all you have on TV is the President, Simon and Simon, NIT or the Women’s NCAA Tourney. Well I decided to make it a night and bet a 3 team parlay which included Oklahoma, Maryland and Florida..
Suffice it to say I hit the parlay and enjoyed it as much as Andy Griffith reruns.
I got to say that I had to watch the Oklahoma game till the end as they had to cover an 11.5 pt spread and 4 time Consensus All American Courtney Parris, yes Bubba Parris’s daughter and the girl who said that if they dont win the championship she will give back $60k in scholarship, well she for the 3rd time in her career did not have a double double. Of course.. I bet them and she pulls that mess. Well it worked out and I think I have found my wagering calling.
Pat fuming over 1st round loss
A side note.. Bitch of the Day Award goes to Pat Summit. After last year’s National Championship just about her entire team left and this year for the first time in her 28 years as head coach she lost in the 1st round. What does she do? She has called practice till the NCAA says they cant practice anymore to prove she is pissed. What she is all bent out of shape about is now UConn and Gino Auriemma, her arch nemesis has the upper hand with 16 straight Sweet 16’s when Tenn had the record at 28.
WOW!! Imagine this happening in the mens game.. Ummm not.
I know it’s important, I honestly do but we’re talking about practice. We’re talking about practice man. We’re talking about practice. We’re talking about practice. We’re not talking about the game. We’re talking about practice.
I knew that was comin’! nice work mad max…
Are you kidding me with this…Tennessee is an elite womens program. Hell yea she is having practice after losing in the first round for the first time in the schools history. If it were my team they would be practicing also. Those girls are there to play ball and win. Thats why their education is being paid for, its their job and I guarantee you all of them dreamed their entire life to play for the Lady Vols and win a championship. This is how you do it, practice, practice, practice. Maybe your just too damn lazy to do it yourself.
Heather.. this gestapo way of coaching is taking it a bit too far. This is an ego thing to Summit plain and simple.
I do tho agree that they are there on States dime and are to be the best.. unfortunately this year was not so good
i think the Parris twins and the lady sooners should take the championship. Look at all the talent these girls have on their team.
Now, here it is a year later, and didn’t the “Bitch of the Year”‘s way prove to work out very nicely? Pat Summitt is not a “Bitch” however, she’s not a coach for the weak either. She wasn’t doing that to prove she was pissed. Pat has much deeper reasons for what she does than that. She is a classy woman and leader. At 54 yrs old, it is so much easier to recognize these qualities in others and I would give anything to have her leading my team in life. Awesome lady!
