As the start of the 2009-10 season draws nigh, here are some wishes for the team, the fans and the season:
- First and foremost, good health, happiness and good luck to everyone connected with the team
- Successful rehabs and speedy returns for Hannah and Sarah
- Immediate returns to 100% for JJ and Jayne with no more injuries to them or anyone else
The rest are in no particular order:
- An early Christmas gift straight from Storrs in Connecticut (Stanford at UConn, Dec. 23)
- Lots of 3-pointers to limit the crowds around Jayne and the other posts and to fatten my tournament travel fund. After the Cardinal opened last season with 15 3s against Chico State, I decided to put $1 for every 3-pointer into a travel fund. By the end of the season in St. Louis, I had accumulated $246 to cover meals, cabs, etc. It sure would be nice to double that this season.
- Fewer turnovers
- More rebounds on both ends of the court
- Fewer fouls
- More free throws made
- Enthusiastic, sell-out crowds for every home game
- Softer music before tip-offs to allow fans to chat with each other
- Return of the agility dogs that were such a hit last season
- Victories to reward Tara for coming up with one of the team’s toughest schedules ever
- Singers who perform our national anthem the way it was written
- Good officiating
- Pac-10 championship
- The NCAA championship trophy for the Cardinal in San Antonio
- And last but not least, lots of fun for everyone
