| Who wins MOP? I say ethier Bobbit or Anosike |
No way does Anosike get it. While her rebounding is a nice stat, most of the balls she's rebounded have flown right to her. Hell, I'd give Auguste the MOP before Anosike. |
Good point. She did work hard but some of those balls were about her standing and catching.

Yeah, Kia really stepped up in the game and the guard were a mess.
I have to tell Vivian C. though that she needs to stop recruiting so many guards and start recruiting some more post players.

| Notice how pointedly Parker says "one more year". I guess two more is out of the question.

No surprise there, but I wouldn't see it as a bad thing.

Again they ask CP if she is coming out, again she said "why wouldn't I comeback in orange, why wouldn't I?" I wish they would shut up already. She has her whole career ahead of her, and as far as I kow no real injuries, so maybe she wants another championship in college because as a number 1 pick she will get drafted by a lottery team, and it will be awhile before another championship.

Candace said she's staying at Tennessee - but the reporters ask anyway...Oden had to endure the same questions after OSU's loss to Florida.
Congratulations Lady Vols!
Finally!
It's been a while.
The last time I celebrated the Lady Vols winning the National Title, I was saying after the game, "That Catchings kid is going to be something special..."

| Is the MOP award for the Tournament or for the game. I'm pretty sure you can't deny that Parker is the MOP in the Tournament. This game wasn't her best but she did put up points and her assists and defense were solid.

Slovy...wow. That's hilarious, but so true.
I'm a blessed man...three national championships in 17 months. That probably won't happen to me ever again.
Congrats to Rutgers...I've got all the respect in the world for that program, the entire athletic department there for that matter. They are a fun team to watch, and I love Stringer. She's my favorite Big East Conference coach by far. They had an awesome season, though, they've got nothing to hang their heads about after tonight.
Candace was player of the game according to ESPN...that's okay, but Anosike did it all. All matters of rebounds...she was incredible. I'd have picked either her or Bobbitt, but I don't get a vote, of course.
Wow...this is awesome.
As a side note, my car has a 6 time national champions specialty tag on it. Expires at the end of the month. Maybe they'll give me a number 7 to put on it when I go register in a few weeks.
I'm happy for the players...happy I got a chance to see Sidney Spencer play, because after how I acted Sunday (see my fan blog for more on that), I don't deserve even that. Bobbitt was awesome, and just...wow.
I don't know how to describe what I'm feeling. It's awesome, I know that...and I don't normally use that word 48 times per post. I do know that if I could bottle this feeling up, I could make billions.
One interesting note: There are severe storms rolling through Tennessee right now. Here's hoping that fact is a good omen for the upcoming WNBA season!

| Would you believe someone in the press conf just asked Candace again if she'll be back? She basically said, "yes, i've answered it so many times. I'll say it once more, I'm wearing orange next year."

Don't put too much stock into the player of the game award...it's just something they have to do because of the sponsorship...it's not really that well thought out who SHOULD deserve it...basically the producer and the Graphcis AP decide quick who should be it...if Candace did anything it was going to be her, believe me...
Now, on the other hand, was there really any question who the tournament MOP would be? I mean, bobbitt and anosike were good support players, but are you forgetting Candace's unreal defense? and she did drop 30 twice...and her scoring average was tempered because tennessee pretty much blew everyone out before that UNC game...and Candace really did take over that game in the last few minutes Sunday night....

I'm proud to say I'm one of the million media types that have asked her the question...
problem is sometimes you need to ask it to get it either on tape or just IN CASE you're the one to catch her on the day she decides, ok, i'll spill the beans...i'm coming out!
How lousy would you feel if you finally decide to not ask her, and she turns around and tells someone else, yes, i'm coming out?

C'mon, Pat. This ain't "business as usual".
