UConn wins 88th consecutive game to tie UCLA for Division I record

[lefty]

I believe the UCONN accomplishment is very close to the same magnitude as UCLA.....

There wasn't near the parity on the men's side when UCLA had their streak and certaionly not anything close to the parity there is now.
I don't think you will ever see that streak in the men's game ever again.

And when the UCONN women lose I doubt you will ever see another team have that kind of streak again either...and while the parity in women's basketball isn't great now I think it will improve like the men's have as time goes on.

They compare winning coaches many times as well in sports...men and women so I don't have a problem with the comparison.

The UConn WBB streak is amazing and they should be congratulated. To use it to justify and demand more broad interest in women's college basketball from the media and the public, is a joke.

If the product is interesting enough, people will watch it and the media will cover it. No amount of sexist, racist, feminist, mud slinging by Gino or from the rest of the Women's BB crowd can make people interested in the product. I am sure there are some MIGHTY awesome YMCA pick up game, NBA Development game, or International game men's records, but they won't get me interested in watching it live/on TV or reading about it. ENOUGH!

Until the PC Crowd and the Feministas agree that separate college records for all athletes, male and female, are abolished, shut your pile hole about UConn WBB streak being compared to UCLA's MBB streak and "BEATING IT"..

No womens' tennis, golf, volleyball, track, cross country, swimming, gymnastics individual or team records...

If they want to compare themselves to the boys, so be it. One record for all athletes, period.
