Oso planning to go pro
I'm not sure what winning or losing has to do with this thread?
an on-air apology? Too funny
and for fans concerned enough to write on chatboards about the team, this is a completely newsworthy topic. i learned this during my time at MU in the Broadcast Journalism department.
People saying it was no big deal obviously didn't hear the interview. Mac asked a very basic, unthreatening question, and Buzz went on what seemed like a 2-minute rant, ripping Mac up and down Wisconsin Ave. Absolutely no justification for that,
And I learned during my time at MU in Psych 101 that adrenalin can cause people to do crazy things... Big deal. So if the fans are concerned enough to write on chatboards on Buzz' choice of shoes this week, should that be news worthy? Or how about Buzz' breakfast this morning... I mean after all don't we all want to eat the breakfast of champions?Just because 8 people on a chat board write about it, it's worth talking about?Reminds me of a Family Guy episode...FCC Suit 1: Gentlemen, we got 20 calls about the David Hyde-Pierce incident. And as you know, one call equals a billion people, which means 20 billion people were offended by this. Needless to say, something must be done.Laughable
A misunderstanding is no justification? Perhaps a mistake? God forbid he misunderstands a question. And God forbid that certain subjects are touchy matters from the all humble Buzz Williams. Gag
perhaps because winning is the BIGGER story than this garble?
I'm guessing you didn't hear the interview. If you had, you might have a different opinion.
if you think im wrong check out the other MU blogs (already). i gaurantee you this will be addressed in some form by the mainstream media.stop acting like a badger fan. it's okay if our guys slip up once and awhile but to not call them on it is not being honest with them or yourself. i appreciate when people call me on my BS.
Thank you Hilltopper. I believe it's Buzz's relative.
I agree - tough to listen to. I kept waiting for us listeners to be brought in on the joke...but it never came and was very cold for the rest of the interview. Props to Mac as he didn't totally back down, but didn't escalate the situation either. I'll chalk this goof of buzz's up to adrenaline, inexperience and likely some additional pressure as our winning streak gets longer.

hey '06 - here's an example....http://community.sportsbubbler.com/forums/t/71177.aspxand if they are talking about it on ESPN radio, it's already gettin mainstream media play.
I checked the blogs. Nothing that I see. No word on this travesty of the year. You will guarantee me this will be addressed by the mainstream media? This slip up? Not the win? Alright, I will hold you to it.Read my last post. I think if he just felt like ripping into him it was uncalled for. But if it was a misunderstanding he deserves a little slack. Sure, he doesn't get a free pass for acting like a dick, but I think he deserves the benefit of the doubt. People here are acting like he meant to do this, and just felt like ripping Mac a new one. I'm sure it was a misunderstanding and I'm sure it'll be cleared up between the two. Just relax- wooosaaaah
