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

Can't win on national tv or w/ baby blues
I can't find any origin history on this meme but it relatively ubiquitous for MU fans.  Per the legend, the team can't win when on national tv or when wearing the baby blue unis.  God help them if both are happening at the same time.  There have been a large number big wins and losses on national tv to make this not true, but never let reality stand in the way of a good meme

Holy Nagasaki!  Wasn't Hiroshima like the subject of every other thread for about a year and a half?

Hiroshima and Haikus were two of the worst things to ever happen to MUScoop.
