Road to 100: Sunday Open Thread

by Nestor on May 13, 2007 9:42 AM PDT in Other Sports Comment 77 comments

M already has all of us hyped up for today's big game. All eyes from this nation will be on Adam Krikorian's pool warriors who delivered yet another conquest yesterday at Los Alamitos. Our Lady Bruins are gunning for number 100. In their honor BruinCivil sent us a link to some great pictures from the pool side yesterday:

For more great pics from yesterday's Trojan beatdown check out this thread from Bruin Report Online.

Once again I will echo M's pitch and urge everyone of you who can head to Los Alamitos, to go out there and support our warriors. It will be incredible if they can pull this off.

In honor of our Lady Bruins this is our special Sunday - Road to 100 - open thread.

GO BRUINS.

Hi everyone

Just wanted to let everyone know that the wedding was fantastic. So many people came up to us, and said that they had a great time, that we looked so happy, etc.

Needless to say, we're exhausted and we leave tomorrow for London, but I just wanted to check in and say hi.

I'm still trying to figure out how this game works, but I do know that it's good when we score and they don't sooooooo WAY TO GO GIRLS!!!!

How long are these games?

How much time left? God I feel so ignorant.

by Nestor on May 13, 2007 6:02 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Well

They've been playing for about 30 minutes and it's almost half time so another 30ish is my guess. I don't really know either, but that's the best I could come up with.

by Ryan Rosenblatt on May 13, 2007 6:04 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Why do I not get CSTV...

I want to see this game so badly...
Low scoring though, usually means a slugfest.

I'll be honest

I've seen these women practice, a couple of them can shoot harder than I used to. I was more of a finesse/placement/timing shooter anyway. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

I'd give you a play by play

Lack of scoring

It's the fourth and final quarter, right? This seems like an amazingly intense and defensive game. Let's go bruins!

It's often not the shot that scares me

it's the rebound.

Did Feher stop that shot

after our player was ejected?

Looks like Stanford just got an ejection too
