Insanity Region 2 vs 15
« on: May 28, 2015, 11:21:19 PM »
Hiroshima

A meme born of a discussion around changing standards for Marquette basketball.  During the Williams vs. Williams era, people with "sources" indicated that there were major changes coming and if people found out about them the board would be Hiroshima.  To date, Hiroshima was never sighted but that only fed the meme making it one of the strongest in Scoop history


Website construction

A classic summer Scoop meme.  After the Big East launched in it's new brand and new organization, there appeared to some, to be a lack of activity around making the league visible on the web.  This included the lack of a website.  This sparked a huge debate(by summer standards) of what exactly the commissioner should or should not be doing about website script writing and if furniture was a priority.  It's as much fun as it sounds.

I thought Hiroshima was the sexual assault thing and Larry's departure, right?

Nope.  It had to do with increasing academic requirements for players.  Supposedly, players who were eligible under the rules in force during the academic period in question would be made ineligible after the fact by the new standards.

That's how it started anyway.  After a while, people started trotting it out for everything.

The only good thing about it was keefe's photoshop of the Enola Gay with Larry Williams and Fr. Pilarz sitting in windows.

You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

also Hiroshima was to include a radical defunding of the bball program

It also had a tinge of SLU stink with SMU top notes giving off a coyingly elegant bouquet...
