Poll
Question: Over/Under On Gerry Boyle NEW Hours Spent On MUBB Legal Issues Over The Next Year
Option 1: Less than 1 hour votes: 26
Option 2: More than 1 hour votes: 20
Title: Vote: Will There Be Off-the-court Trouble In The Next Year?
Post by: Tugg Speedman on March 29, 2012, 08:30:56 AM
Do not consider any hours involving the January Bar Tickets.  This is about NEW Hours.

I structured the question this way so their was a threshold to "off-the-court trouble."  If Junior slams another car door or a bunch of players sit because they were late for a meeting, that is not off-the-court trouble.  Only when it becomes a big enough issue to involve Boyle is what we are voting on.

(In case you do not know, Gerry Boyle is a prominent Milwaukee Attorney and big MU Booster.  He was Blue's legal representation when he had the fight in Qboda in 2010.)

I said less than 1 hour

While I voted 'More', I believe any incident will be in the 'No biggie' range of a municipal ticket for something.  Even that would get an hour of his time.

I've addressed this before... starting polls is what I do.  It is a conscious effort on my part.

Is it their or there? Maybe its they're. I haven't had my 4th grade English class today. Did MU offer English back in '84? You should have gone to that.

It is understandable how you got it wrong. It is easy to get them confused.  Maybe a poll?


Should adults be held to the same standard of English as say a 5th grader?

I say no-once we made it through Elementary school we should be off the hook. Ya with me '84?

Let's see .... 104 page thread on our coach leaving because of a rift with the AD involving off-the-court issues and this poll is distasteful?

This poll is about the biggest issue facing the program since losing to Florida.

Apparently, you not only missed 4th grade English, but you also missed the class where they taught students that two wrongs don't make a right.

Who cares about the 104 page thread? Most will agree it is ridiculous. However, the thread's ridiculousness has absolutely no bearing on how ridiculous this poll is.

If the qualification is whether or not Gerry Boyle is "involved," the answer is likely zero.

What value does this poll bring? This is more than pure conjecture, nothing else.  Does it give you some kind of "psychic reward" if you get a large number of responses? Or maybe this will give you an outlet to respond to people and boost your posting numbers.  I really enjoy MU basketball, but jeez....sometimes I wonder if some have a life outside of MUSCOOP.

Doesn't this seem like a poll that Badgermaniac would start, and Dodds would subsequently go Apecrap?
