@2livegrapeape@FirstTake@stephenasmith She only reacted to South Carolina's thuggery. "Raven" Johnson should have fouled out in the 1st quarter. Fortunately, the refs did a volte face and officiated the national championship game properly. I thought they might let the ghetto ball persist and rob those poor UCLA girls.
@FirstTake@stephenasmith Geno Auriemma doesn't have to apologize for anything. The officiating was horrendous, and Dawn Staley has no respect for her elders, cursing at a 72-year-old man and getting up in his face like that. UCLA exposed her as a lousy coach with no strategy. AMERICA'S team won yesterday
Dawn Staley says she has not heard from Geno Auriemma directly, and told reporters she wants the focus to be on UCLA winning.
"We're not going to damper UCLA's day with it."
@jpula23687@UConnWBB Officiating didn't keep his players from hitting wide open shots! And if you want them to be fair, Sarah Strong would've fouled out in the third quarter!!
Geno had a legitimate gripe and if he were urged by PR and HR and any other R to apologize, so be it. It does not change fact that the officiating, for whatever reason, was awful. UConn went to the foul line 6 times, SC 24 despite fact SC delivered a mugging, more like MMA than basketball. NCAA needs to investigate this game. Millions of dollars are bet on these games and that is the elephant in the room that needs to be addressed. Nothing to do with players on either team but as I said, the uncalled fouls on Sara and KK Arnold to name two were glaring,
@bo_lilly24@kenswift lol Go look at the tape! I means so much to them because they knew they were cheated!! You see what happened the next year. Also ask West Virginia how they were cheated that year also. It was all for ratings!
@2livegrapeape@kenswift The refs made sure LSU won the game, so just be happy about it. Iowa took care of SC so they couldn’t beat LSU by 20 again like they did earlier in the season.
"I'm super proud of our kids and I'm not going to let any of this take anything away from the performance on the floor."
Dawn Staley shared her thoughts on the interaction with Geno Auriemma postgame.
@BeLiKeDime@Thechat101 That man didn't know you!! And if he posted publicly, doesn't mean people knew him at that time, which means a large amount of people may not have even seen it. But your platform definitely made sure several people found out about it. Too old for that!
Nigga it does fucking matter. It matters because you tried to frame the guy as disloyal, firstly. How the hell a nigga gon be loyal to someone he don’t know. 😂 Secondly, the guy tried to apologize after meeting you and you blew him off. That’s not his problem nigga. We don’t have to tell you how to handle shit, but we can have an opinion based on the facts. Shit not adding up that’s all.
Hey Oscars producers, if you have time for a lengthy Bridesmaids bit and dumb filler presenter intros, you have time to let the winners give their thanks. It’s the best part of the show. Cutting off the mic after one person speaks (esp that Golden speech) is so, so cold. #oscars
Oscars got it right this year. It was truly about the talent and not a popularity contest. But whoever directed this needs to never the Oscar's again. Just too many mistakes #Oscars
Tensions flare up between Gilbert Arenas and Rashad McCants Rashad feels the whole crew isn’t moving as a unit, while Gil says You're throwing more smoke our way than the Baha podcast .
