Name
Soft bubble

Description
This meme has multiple fathers.  The term seemed to surface two years earlier as part of a legitimate tournament discussion but had no significant traction as a term or for ridicule.  However, when you insert the term during a tourney debate after we have transitioned from TC to Buzz as head coach, you now have meme gold Jerry!  Chicos referred to the soft bubble as why MU would get into the tourney.  Others who(some automatically) took offense to this as some sort of insult to the great Bazz Williams, decried the soft bubble as a great fiction.  Then others just giggled about the term soft bubble.  No matter who or how it started, it is now a strong member of the Scoop lexicon and meme community.

Name
Vatican Smoke

Description
This meme came into popularity during the Buzz Williams escape to the backwoods of Virginia drama.  Playing off the smoke seen when selecting a pope, pictures started popping up in threads every time a "source" declared this or that.  It likely gained traction as it was one of the first picture memes in Scoop, plus MU is like Catholic or something.  Many posters contributed to the growth of the meme so I'm sure Bleuteaux wasn't the first, but his was the first I could find and ultimately I'm lazy so....all hail meme creator Bleuteaux.
