Syracuse Needs to Be Good Again
I feel like my last couple of blogs have been really negative, and I don’t want that to be the motive for every blog. College basketball is maybe the most electrifying sport in the world, and personally, nothing makes me happier than sitting my ass on the couch and watching two teams duke it out for the glory of winning, and there is no sport that exemplifies this more than college basketball. So…

forgot to post this but here are some of my thoughts on the other wnba drafts.
i’m BEYOND excited for Angel and Kamilla as a duo, i’m going to a chicago game soon idc. They were already dangerous as rivals so as TEAMMATES?? LETHALLL
I’m so happy for Dyaisha 🥹 When Syracuse went against uconn I literally couldn’t even be happy abt uconn’s win cs her crying was making me cry. I wish her nothing but the best, she absolutely deserves it 👏🏽
GO CAMERONN. I’ve only been a fan of her for a short amount of time unfortunately but I’m excited to watch her excel in her career.
When I tell you I SCREAMEDDD when Kate’s name was called 😭 IM SO HAPPY FOR HER. she came for Caitlin with a hope and a dream and she finally got her opportunity 🥹 go be great Kate 💛.

Feeling like a Yuma morii Pokémon card
#talkingcore#got my little book prize and tell me why books are heavy I was surprised with the hellsing manga and now this why are books heavy#don’t get me wrong it’s cool but this thing barely fit into my backpack twas intimidating#oh yeah so excited for next week when everything goes to shit! yay strikes! not good that they have to be striking#but no discussion sections means more brain silly time. we love brain silly time :)#also every day I get more pissed about March madness I am not emotionally invested in basketball but they’re letting the wrong teams win#like last night I’m sorry but you let Michigan state get fucked so another willie the wildcat could win??? fuck Kansas state#msu has like one of the only bearable mascots in the big10 and you let them lose? in overtime too???#Xavier’s still in though I’m holding out for Xavier I love the blue blob I love stupid looking mascots#Western Kentucky? W. Syracuse? W. Pepperdine? W. Mizzou? W. Ohio State? MASSIVE W.#okay like Akron? they got zippy!! he looks a lil stupid but where else do you have a kangaroo!!!#either you’re intimidating ugly cute or silly like I think Arizona state is intimidating silly because it has a sleek sharp design#but also the dude looks a lil dumb#or like penn state is just ugly but berkeley is ugly cute (actually I really don’t like oski but other people do so I shall be less hostile)#and like all those blobs? Xavier western Kentucky Syracuse? cute silly!!#I need to do my little charts again because I got distracted at like Arkansas and frankly a lot of my knowledge is limited geographically#like my state and where I’m at school I’m pretty good with as well as places I know people have gone#but like not many people where I’m at are going to say Tennessee so I’m not as familiar with a bunch of schools there#which I need to fix because there must be so many epic mascots there that I’m clueless about!!!#okay some states like Wyoming I know have like Two Colleges so it’s easier to know things there but like Mississippi? no clue what’s there!!

#7 North Carolina Dominates Syracuse, 103-67
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.—Seventh-ranked North Carolina built a big, first-half lead and cruised to a 103-67 win over Syracuse on Saturday afternoon at the Smith Center. The Tar Heels led by 27 in the first half and increased the lead to as many as 39 points in the second. Carolina’s defense shined once again, holding the Orange to 36.5 percent shooting, the fifth consecutive UNC opponent to shoot…

Love grows (where my rosemary goes) prequel
Tumblr media
pure fluff, oc is a nervous gay mess, oc's name is Cheri and her kid is named Rosemary
Cheri truly was wondering why she agreed to bring her six year old to Storrs Connecticut for a basketball game, Rosemary has been obsessed with basketball since she was a baby, but she was mostly obsessed with a player that wore the jersey number #5 and the kid talked her mom in to taking her to a game if she did good in school.
Rosemary reminded her mom a lot of herself, persuasive, high energy and a deep love of basketball. Cheri grew up in a family of athletes, her mom played basketball, her sister played soccer and her dad played football, she herself played basketball until she graduated high school and has her jersey number #5 tattooed on her hand, so she shouldn't be shocked her mini me looks up to any player that wears that number.
So that's how she got herself sitting on the steps of gampel pavilion, with Rosemary in an oversized Bueckers jersey down to her knees in very high spirits, she was practically jumping off the walls with how excited she is.
"Rosemary get down, you're gonna get hurt honey" Cheri says lightly tugging on the backpack leash over the jersey Rosemary begged for. "i know you're excited but some sit with me until its time, okay?", complying Rosemary sits next to her mom with a massive grin on her face. "Momma i wanna play here when im old like you" the 1st grader said softly, taking in the sights of a brand new place for the two, being from new york and a die hard syracuse fan, Cheri has never been so this was a first for her too.
She was now fiddling with the leash her overactive daughter was attached too, Cheri had pulled some strings (using her moms connections) for Rosemary to meet her favorite player and she was praying that the strings worked.
it didn't help that she was deepy down bad for Paige, like hell, Rosemary's dad is practically the male version of her. Cheri was just hoping she could keep herself together in front of quite frankly her dream girl.
a/n; prequel!! id love to know what everyone thinks of this<3, if you see any grammar mistakes, no you dont this is also kinda self projecting LMAO so Cheri is me and i am her , the actual first chapter will be out soon!

When 6-foot-7 center Kamilla Cardoso enters the WNBA -- likely as a top five pick after Monday's draft -- she will face a new challenge, in coming up against the world's best players on a regular basis. Outside the college game with the South Carolina Gamecocks, Cardoso has proven her ability with the Brazil national team under José Neto - including against the college coach who would later help her become one of the most sought-after prospects in women's basketball. On June 19, 2021, Dawn Staley and Cardoso crossed paths as competitors on the court for the first time. A month and a half earlier, Cardoso had transferred to South Carolina from Syracuse, where she spent her freshman season. However, on this particular day, Staley and Cardoso were adversaries as Neto's Brazil looked to plot a path past Staley's USA in the FIBA AmeriCup semi-finals. Ultimately, the USA won 71-60, but Cardoso proved to be undaunted by the occasion - putting in a huge shift on defense. Of her 10 rebounds on the day, eight were defensive rebounds. According to Neto, it is no accident that Cardoso is entering the WNBA as a player considered ready for a seamless transition from college basketball to the professional game. Rather, her success is a result of young players deliberately being exposed to international camps with Brazil's established WNBA stars.

Y’all i don’t wanna be a downer but i’m keeping my expectations kinda low for monday. I just think the fatigue will be too much to overcome by that point and it really would need to be a case of USC beating themselves too, like Duke did tonight as you said, and i just don’t see that happening. I love our girls so much, but the reality is, I think even having come this far with all the key players we’re missing is already such a testament to their perseverance and resilience and if you would have told me in December, heck even after the ND and SC games, that we made it to the elite eight, i wouldn’t have believed it.
So i’m just gonna enjoy Monday, and hope that it’s a competitive one and everyone plays our brand of basketball and of course if they do get the dub, i will be so over the moon. But, at the same time, i don’t think i’ll be too disappointed if they don’t win, like i’m just so proud of them for having made it this far in spite of everything 🥹
You're so right. The haters are going to make a huge deal out of UConn losing as if people weren't *seriously* expecting us to potentially lose to Jackson State. This team has gone through hell and has still been the epitome of resilience. There's a version of this team that would have probably caved to both Syracuse and Duke's push for comeback and that we didn't, is a huge testament to our growth.
At the end of the day I'm a Paige Bueckers believer and a part of me will always think we have a chance as long as we have her but at the same time, it's hard to overlook just how tired this team is and just how little room for error we have. But it's not over til it's over and no matter how it ends, these are still my girls for life. 💙

Def need to see Slim on the Olympic team and to know that it'd be fulfilling her dream as narrated by her fav tattoo 🥹
Yes! They NEED to put her on the Olympic team! Hopefully playing for the Mystics helps her make those USA Basketball connections.
Tumblr media
Brittney Sykes has a tattoo on her shin of a long road headed toward a mountain with landmarks along her path. On the left is her high school. A Syracuse logo comes up on the right. The WNBA crest follows on the left before the Olympic rings back on the right. The road curls into a mountain that crowns on top of the scar still visible from one of two ACL surgeries from college.
“It’s a manifestation piece for me,” Sykes explained.
The Washington Mystics guard, better known as “Slim,” has inked a collage of her life and mind-set across her body. She calls her skin a canvas and on it has painted the complicated picture that is her existence. The road represents Sykes’s journey. The mountain is the giant challenge that was the comeback from those two ACL tears.
