Title: Marquette's nickname change
Post by: CrimsonNCrean on June 14, 2009, 05:42:02 PM
How do most of you feel about being forced to change your nickname?  I was always a huge Al McGuire fan (next to Bob Knight my favorite coach) and I hate it when "politically correct" groups have to tell teams what they can and can't be named.  Politics should be left out of sports.

Marquette and Warriors goes hand n hand in my opinion.

I liked Golden Avalanche also......  hehe :)

Are you serious right now?  So you're not here to troll, did I get that right in your first poll?  You're clearly proving to be here for JUST THAT REASON AND THAT REASON ALONE

does it actually entertain you to post questions covered dozens of times that I find hard to believe you even care about?

Let's see:

How do you feel about Crean?  Check!
How do you feel about the nickname change?  Check!

I guess all he has to do to finish up the trolling trifecta is to ask how people feel about the "Notre Dame is French for our _____" t-shirt.

A. Trevor M. is really a nice guy, and was just misunderstood.
B. Sobelmans makes a crappy burger.
C. Beer is for losers, wine coolers are where it's at!

Why can't Brewers fans just accept that Cubs fans are a guaranteed stimulus to Milwaukee/MillerTown economy ?? :D  Job security, baby!

What do you think about Mike Deane's chances to get us into the tourney? He had a solid run at Siena; anyone think he will bring in some top 50 players?

Do you guys think you have been unfair to UW-Milwaukee all of these years?   And why were you afraid of them when they were good?

I never thought I'd have an opportunity where the Ignore feature really became necessary, but it just did.

K. What are your thoughts on the hiring process of Buzz Williams?
L. Don't you think MU could have fared better with a more experienced head coach at the helm?

So, can we run over on the II,II boards and ask them who they think couyld toss a chair farther, Crean or Knight? Not trying to start anything, I am just a huge Knight fan and thought it would be an interesting topic.
Well, at least the douche bag has found others like him at II,II.
