Tall girl is too tall. Iowa needs a tall girl.

That was an amazing pass

Iowa gotta speed things up again. The pace has slowed down and SC got a chance to breathe. I know they're gassed but it seems like the only way lol.

How progressive of him. I'm sure conservadweebs will frothe.

Cardosa is a cheat code shes like an adult playing against kids

A literal Amazon queen. I'm here for it

Just chucked it up from half court for no reason lol

The pace of this is incredible

That redhead is very tall. Good for her

Of course they're running behind schedule

The best of the best don't even necessarily play in the WNBA tho. WNBA players make so little money that sometimes college superstars just complete their degrees and get real jobs instead of continue with basketball lol.

Honestly these are really fun. They're a bit less refined than NFL games, there's kinda a constant feeling that anything could happen bc the players aren't quite as good. It's almost more dramatic than seeing a superstar give you guaranteed results.

Not sure. I guess it's just an artistic decision. While all pretty ugly, they're at least distinct art styles which give the show some level of character.

Unlike every anime character looking the same.

Fine them into oblivion.

And then nationalize the airlines while your at it. Tired of booking flights for $1000+

Lol mortgage. Just pay for your house in cash.

I don't know basket ball rules too well or basketball in general. But would it really have mattered? It's not like uconn got a 2 pointer in after that anyways which would tied the game had Clark not gotten from the free throw. If the score had only ended up being a 1 point difference I could see bitching being warranted.

These kind of things always rely on rampant speculation. What we know is that it was objectively, unambiguously a foul. Ref called it right.

If the foul wasn't called, we delve into the unknown. Maybe UConn scores. Maybe they don't. Even if they do, the best player in the league has at least a few seconds to drain another 3 and take the lead right back. It's more or less pointless to ponder what could have been. Best to stick to facts.

It never occurred to me that hoothoot could be pronounced that way.

Because it has only happened exactly one time with my friend.

I don't appreciate the trolling but I do appreciate the bumps. Mixed feelings but I'll walk away thinking this was a mostly positive experience.

Why does the WNBA exist, considering it doesn't make money? Everything else in it capitalist world gets gutted if it doesn't raise the bottom line. Is it just virus signaling to prop up a women's League or is there actually some legal mechanism forcing it into existence?

We understand, we just refuse to acknowledge it.

Yeah. Tie-dus just sounds better so we roll with that.

I've known people who pronounce Suicune "sue-ih-sin" despite C never making an S sound when followed by a U in English.

Also knew one kid who pronounced it "zucchini"

Yeah, that's fine tho bc its name isn't an onomatopoeia and we shouldn't be expecting children to know every nuance of English grammar.

Hoothoot tho....cmon.

Your move Kaiba

So, in other words, you do see where your argument fails.

It's not an argument. It's a fact. Every other 7 year old knew it was Hoothoot.

StealThisSheen posted...

To be fair, even as "Hooth-oot," it still basically ends in a "hoot" sound. Honestly, it's more natural to read "Hoothoot" as "hooth-oot" than "hoot-hoot," I think. Yes, it's an owl, but also... Are there any words with a th in the middle where you pronounce the hard t?

Yes, Hoothoot.

Having a 7-year-old friend is weird

At what age did you start making friends, if ever?

Thank you for listening

And he was like 7, and normally idgaf how you pronounce a Pokemon's name.....but I mean it was a fucking owl.

I love my kids but i'd have a lot more money and free time without them

No. And I went the rest of the day game expecting her to be resurrected somehow.

How does he feel about stealing bread from the mouths of decadence?

This whole dumb convo reminds me of when Kadarius Toney was so clearly off sides and people were like "omg just let them play!"

It was never close tho. UConn played their best in the first half and still only led by like 6. Once Clark decided to get serious it was never a ballgame. The final score is misleading.

Wtf is Wii U lmao. Sounds nasty

In the transformers movie game for Nintendo DS, there's an open world and you get to explore and scan vehicles in the area which then let's you transform into those vehicles at will. Kinda cool mechanic for a forgettable movie tie-in game.

There are some vehicles that are more rare than others and any completionist would want to scan every vehicle in the game.

There's a military base area with a single jet that is simply parked and you CANNOT scan it. It is entirely un-interactable. I hate it. to this day I think about it. It's like the damn truck in Pokemon.

That is all

She's good enough to make $90k/year in the WNBA.

Now explain how you are going to make the movement feel like crap:

Maybe the character moves slow af but also like he's on roller skates?

I never got this slogan bc only some of them are actually airborne but w/e, it's a kids franchise. They probably won't think too much about it.

Yea it has been one of the quietest undefeated seasons I have seen in sports. One thing I just realized is Caitlin Clark lost the finals last year. I wonder how Caitlin Clark college legacy would be impacted if she loses back to back finals.

Oh wow I just remembered South Carolina was the team Caitlin did this too last year lmao.

She'll still go down as the GOAT. She has carried an otherwise mediocre Iowa team to back to back championships. Iowa isn't supposed to be good at anything.

Every player on SC's roster would be the standout player on any other team.

Great. So no dumb forced rivalries?

Smackems posted...

Not interested

What's so special about this now

One of the players is actually good and making people rethink that maybe women's basketball isn't a total bore.

Still no dunking tho.

Does SC have a standout player? I'm real tired of the "CC vs Reece/Buekers" narratives we've seen as if CC has any actual competition.

I guess they play again tomorrow. Not a lotta rest for these ladies. Hope they're not all gassed for the finals.

Iowa won btw

lol Clark praising Stuelke when she literally threw the game away

She had 23 points. Wtf u talking bout.

archizzy posted...

UConn too good with their squad who can all actually shoot. Iowa was due for a poor shooting night and lets be honest they are a one player show. Gabby Marshall can give you a three here or there but she is largely just a defender. Hannah Stuelke can run the floor and is a decent post player. Normally she is Iowa's best 2nd option.

Kate Martin is really the only other person who can ever put up points and really that is about it for Iowa. Well to be fair Affalter isn't bad. They just don't have a lot of options if Caitlin isn't shooting well.

I think UConn has 7 All Americans on their team. Iowa has 1. This one is over already with the sloppy play Iowa couldn't afford. The turnovers and bad shooting are killing them. If they can put together a good half they could pull it out but boy do they look bad right now.

Oof.

You forgot that bball is a joke sport and a single stud can carry a mediocre team.

GG CC

Probably. He's an easy recast

Trump couldn't win with incumbent advantage. I have a hard time believing he'll win now when things are objectively better under Biden.

Hate the forced narrative but hope CC wins
