There are only two guys in Marquette history that I slurp. They are Dwyane Wade and Wesley Matthews.
Who do you "slurp"?
Yes I know this thread is stupid (for the muscoop maniacs)

I have affection for any one who I saw ever committed to Marquette really, including the Mbakwes, Christofersens, and Maymons of the world. I like to see them all do well. But Jimmy Butler the most probably.

Warriorchick has definitely earned more respect than this post shows. For that matter, no one who chooses to stay out of a thread like this should be brought into it by anyone else, IMO. (EnderWiggen's post excepted since slurping was a Willie creation in the first place.)

You slurp him now, but between 1964 and 1977 I'm sure you did more than your fair share of bitchin'.

Like I said, I'm fairly confident that warriorchick has a better sense of humor and understanding of sarcasm than Murray and mu-rara could ever dream of having. Sorry that I offended you boys. :D You can always pay for DoneDeal's board if you don't enjoy a laugh every once in a while.

I have no doubt that warriorchick has a great sense of humor, I'm still trying to figure out what about your post was funny.
I hardly think that warriorchick staying above the fray qualifies as an endorsement of your sophomoric, misogynic attempt at humor.

The word would be misogynistic. Nicely played by one of our few female posters.

I suppose if one had stopped to urinate, you would have thought that was hilarious.
BTW, too afraid of keefe to call him out on his response? He did imply that you had a mouthful of ...slurp.

Nah, I'm not into the whole public urination thing.
And I took it as him sarcastically saying warriorchick was absent from the thread because her mouth was full. Maybe I'm wrong. Too afraid to call him out, though? No. I've called keefe out in a number of different threads. But I do realize he has a good sense of humor.

Of course you did. That's the heart of what I find objectionable about your whole attitude during this discussion. Since you thought that it would be humorous to suggest that warriorchick should be posting during a thread on slurping, because - well, that's what women do- then keefe had to be referring to warriorchick has the one with something in her mouth because you're another guy, so keefe would never suggest that you were the one who should keep quiet because (turning it around), you would have something in your mouth. I'm not infallible, but I think you really have a very poor read on keefe, if you think he was suggesting that warriorchick hadn't posted because she was otherwise orally occupied.
You been absolutely correct about one thing, though. I am an old guy. Old enough to have daughters. I still have enough respect for you to believe that when (if ?) you get there your consciousness will have risen a level or two.

You're right. I have zero respect for the female sex. They are just objects to use for sexual pleasure and good food. You figured me out based on a sarcastic comment in a thread full of sarcasm.

I really don't see how that's the case.

I really don't see how that's the case.
He replied to my original post sarcastically saying warriorchick was absent from the thread, saying that people should not talk with their mouths full. I took that as him sarcastically explaining her silence, or absence from the thread. Again, maybe I misread it. If he did and he was referring to me, then well played, keefe. I'm not one to get overly offended by sarcastic remarks. I dish, so I better be able to take it as well.
To be completely honest, my original comment was more of a sarcastic jab at jsglow, as we all know those 2 are married. The thread had previously been turned into a thread full of sexual innuendos, so I sarcastically turned it on the only known couple at MUScoop. My bad if that was offensive.

I don't want MUScoop to be another board like donedeal's board, either. Pushing the envelope keeps things interesting by risking the occasional crash and burn. I've have a few of those posts, myself.

Al McGuire
Dwyane Wade
(Strongly considered Maurice Lucas)
-
A defining moment in Marquette history was when Goose Brell cut down the net with a switch blade. You could not possibly make that up.
But the signature moment in the long, storied history was when Al McGuire refused to appear on Adolph Rupp's TV program before the NCAA Tournament on the sole basis of the older man's attitudes on race and social justice. There will never be another Al McGuire.
-
Runner up.
Six-foot three-inch Warrior rebound king Pat Smith tossing a basketball into Lake Michigan at Bradford Beach after DePaul coach Ray Meyer made a disrespectful comment involving the ocean and Pat's shooting touch.
Al made sure the local, as well as Chicago media covered the monumental event.

+1 Few men lived the ideals of our university better. 100 years ago Fr. McCabe admitted women before the Vatican gave him permission. 45 years ago, Al refused to bend for convenience sake knowing that all Warriors were men of character regardless of skin color. In many ways it is his greatest legacy and a bit of an undertold story.

Gary was exhibit A for the kind of guy our previous administration (and some posters) don't want at MU. Al had the power to tell them to go F themselves. Buzz didn't.

Key though is you have to have a person of character in that role to trust with that kind of power. I fear people of character are currently fleeing roles within public life much to societies disadvantage.
-
Perfect, 82. No way our Willie would have fallen for the phony act of that slick New Yorker.
Sorry Lenny. His act was not phony. McGuire recognized his strengths and weaknesses, and made the best for MU when he was there, cared for his players, and used Raymonds to complement his weak areas. Sure he grandstanded on occasion, but it was to win. He had chances to leave but did not, and then when he saw his time was passing as the college landscape was quickly changing, he left for another career, not another team.
I would take that again in a heartbeat. But he was not a "slick New Yorker". You are confusing him with somebody else. He was ahead of his time and an original.
-
You slurp him now, but between 1964 and 1977 I'm sure you did more than your fair share of bitchin'.
No Lenny, I did no bitchin. The guy was one of a kind, and a great one. What you can be sure of Lenny is that he put MU at the elite of college basketball during his time there.

+100. Marquette climbed the ladder to becoming a first rate, high profile university on the backs of mostly poor, mostly black, often academically unprepared for college student athletes. Many of them were Jucos. Ironically, the elites here and in the administration think we're too good for those "types" now.

I'm just pulling your chain, Willie. We agree on Al. That said, given your penchant for negativity I can't believe didn't bitch plenty back in the day. The two technical against NC State in the National Championship game? The technical against Indiana in the regional final in 1976? Losing the final three home games in 77? Neary (a much worse player than Derrick Wilson) starting and playing more minutes than top 5 in the country recruit Bernard Toone (a much, much, much better player than John Dawson)? No complaints? You that big a slurper?

You understand perfectly, glow. I didn't say in the history of Marquette basketball. I chose Marquette because of its Jesuit values which is not just accumulating knowledge but, rather, how one applies that education through ethical behavior. Marquette taught us that we are responsible not just for ourselves but also for our community and that the application of education must be guided by both moral conviction and spiritual insight.
There was a radical zeitgeist in America when Al refused to dignify Rupp's message of exclusion and hate. But while people in Madison were blowing up buildings to drive change in society Al demonstrated a more positive and meaningful way for transforming the American social and political landscape.

+ Tony Smith. A lot of great highlights at Marquette PLUS 10 years in the NBA.
I also met KO several times while I was there. He was a genuinely nice guy. Every 4th word was an f-bomb but with very creative usage. Too bad he was so antsy... his "drive" left him in a totally different category than all of the above, but a quality guy nonetheless.

This isn't accurate.
Al tried to jump to the Bucks. I don't blame him, but let's not pretend like that didn't happen.

Correct. Al didn't think he was making enough money, agreed to coach the Bucks, but the MU prez did not allow him out of his contract.

Yeah, I do remember that. Don't know the whole story-doubt many do--but if Al really wanted to push it, he could have. Contracts are always being broken--but Al did not break his.

No buyouts then, contracts were contracts. When Raynor said no to Al wanting to leave his choices were to coach MU or not coach anywhere. Al wasn't thrilled but returned.

Jordan, Kobe, West, Robertson, Wade. Top 5 sounds about right.

No, I'm a huge fan of Dwyane Wade. I asked who Dwayne Wade was, since you are a slurper of him I wasn't sure who he was.

Not arguing but that is a crowded field. Sharman, Earl the Pearl, the Iceman, the Glide could all be ranked ahead of Wade.

You know, when it was mentioned that Wade was top-5 all-time a few posts earlier, I said, "Yeah right. He's been great but top 5?" But the more I think about it, this list seems pretty darn comprehensive. I wouldn't put Pearl or Drexler over him. Gervin mostly played forward, as did Havlicek and obviously Erving.
So I like your list right the way it is.

Lenny
You mean back when a man's word was his bond?
-
HAhAhAhah!! Good joke! I needed that laugh!!
Bill Shaman defined the position and he and Cousy formed one of the best backcourts ever. I am not saying that Iceman, Glide, or the Pearl are better than Wade but it could equally be argued that Wade is not better than any of them. There is no correct answer and has the makings of a great bar conversation.

Kobe is not only a top 5 guard of all time - but one of the top 10 at any position. Period!
Try separating you feelings about him as a person and as a basketball player.

Quit acting slow, guy
I just thought that someone willing to slurp would know the unique way he spells his name. People that get his name wrong are typically not MU fans I've found, for the most part.
I mean, would you say you are a big slurper of Koba, or Shac or Lebrun?
