(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cu5yrqmXgAEJvKU.jpg)
Jay Bee
Dominic James was constantly criticized during his time at Marquette, similar to how Jay Bee always gets into contentious debates in the moment. Years later (thanks to Cadougan, Derrick) people only remember him fondly, similar to Jay Bee always pulling out his best takes years later. And of course, free throw percentage no matta.

(http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/marq/sports/m-baskbl/auto_action/4584949.jpeg)
Goose
George "Brute Force" Thompson is the forgotten legend of Marquette Hoops. The guy who helped start Al's legacy, who was here before the Final Fours and national titles. The guy the kids (myself included) today don't realize how good he was, to the point that when new players want to wear his same jersey number, even the coaches today forget the number has been retired.

(http://cache1.asset-cache.net/xr/1998337.jpg?v=1&c=IWSAsset&k=3&d=77BFBA49EF878921F7C3FC3F69D929FD9D3AF5C04D09093868D399E834858D2D6086F2D3B86FDD2F)
Ners
Christian Haffner was a walk-on at Marquette who was a Division 5 All-State player in high school. He was really really good, just ask him. Of course, his contributions were so inane that many Scoopers won't realize the walk-on in the picture isn't even Christian Haffner.

(http://cache4.asset-cache.net/xr/463333005.jpg?v=1&c=IWSAsset&k=3&d=77BFBA49EF8789215ABF3343C02EA548617CE782278FF3049959D26F6AAD45AE45A54F21EE346158A55A1E4F32AD3138)
mu_hilltopper
hilltopper keeps making it seem like he's about to abandon Marquette basketball, but like Chris Otule, every fall we come back and he's still managing the shop.

(http://wiki.muscoop.com/lib/exe/fetch.php/men_s_basketball/smith_reggie_01.jpg)
ChicosBailBonds
Reggie Smith's freshman year was promising, working his way into the starting lineup and looking like one for the future. Then he left and ended up with as many alma maters as the Bondsman, first going West (Kansas/UNLV) before coming back east (Indiana/Eastern Illinois). Both also seem to have had issues with Buzz.

(http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/marq/sports/m-baskbl/auto_action/791934.jpeg)
brewcity77
Like Trend Blackledge, I'll occasionally throw down an absolute monster that grabs attention, but the rest of the time I'm just sort of here.

(http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/NCAA+Basketball+Tournament+Regionals+Phoenix+3yV4MzssxRdm.jpg)
ChicosBailBonds
Chicos has been so problematic around here, he gets two. Todd Mayo, like Chicos, was given chance after chance to be a regular, contributing member. In the end, he burned the bridge, ran the ashes through a wood-chipper, and leapt into a volcano clutching them like Gollum falling into Mount Doom with the One Ring in hand.

(http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Trent+Lockett+Ju4iSmoWlchm.jpg)
Freeport Warrior
Like Lockett, his contributions may not always be obvious to the eye test or on the scoresheet, but they are critical when you look back. Just a good, solid contributor who makes the site better.

Lloyd Moore

1. I peaked early ("doable" posts);
2. I have a weak foundation;
3. I have plenty of beef; and
4. I transferred my allegiance during last year's ncaa to a school in PA (not to Duquesne, but to Nova).

chicos = Crean ... the ultimate passive-aggressive a$$wipe.

rocket = the ballboy who wipes the a$$wipe's a$$ ... that's our Boo-Boo, ever faithful to Yogi.

rocky = Jae ... takes absolutely no shyte and always willing to drop the hammer.

brew = Carlino ... always ready to come out firin'

Big Daddy = D-Wade ... quite often the MVP.

Heisy/Dread/Smuggles = Tim Maymon ... believes he knows everything about everything but ends up not really knowing what he thought he knew.

4ever = Deane ... here's hoping he doesn't kiss his mother with that mouth.

Benny = Diener ... looks like a choirboy but there's a little devil in there.

Al Davis = Dukiet ... out of his league. Just lose, baby.

Sand Knit = Grimm ... mostly just takes up space.

Ners = Oliver Lee ... a legend in his own mind.

Lazar's Headband = Duane's headband ... pretty good, but he's no Lazar!

Goose = Don Kojis ... but could be anybody else from the era in which only black-and-white photos are available.

Sultan = Terrell Schlundt ... he's got some game but he's hardly a star.

JamilJaeJamailJrJuan = Jake ... starts with J. What did you expect?

TAMU = Novak ... so popular.

Hards = Heldt ... surprised to be chosen SoG once.

wades = JJJ ... frustrating at times, but ultimately a pretty key contributor.

chicos = Crean ... the ultimate passive-aggressive a$$wipe.

rocket = the ballboy who wipes the a$$wipe's a$$ ... that's our Boo-Boo, ever faithful to Yogi.

rocky = Jae ... takes absolutely no shyte and always willing to drop the hammer.

brew = Carlino ... always ready to come out firin'

Big Daddy = D-Wade ... quite often the MVP.

Heisy/Dread/Smuggles = Tim Maymon ... believes he knows everything about everything but ends up not really knowing what he thought he knew.

Lenny = Jameel McKay ... trusted Buzz a little too much.

4ever = Deane ... here's hoping he doesn't kiss his mother with that mouth.

Benny = Diener ... looks like a choirboy but there's a little devil in there.

Al Davis = Dukiet ... out of his league. Just lose, baby.

Sand Knit = Grimm ... mostly just takes up space.

Ners = Oliver Lee ... a legend in his own mind.

Lazar's Headband = Duane's headband ... pretty good, but he's no Lazar!

Goose = Don Kojis ... but could be anybody else from the era in which only black-and-white photos are available.

Sultan = Terrell Schlundt ... he's got some game but he's hardly a star.

JamilJaeJamailJrJuan = Jake ... starts with J. What did you expect?

TAMU = Novak ... so popular.

chick = Hank Raymonds ... mother hen to all of us.

glow = um, Mrs. Raymonds?

keefe = Bill Neary ... tough guy.

Blackheart = Sam Worthen ... gave me some nice assists when I was planning my Hawaii trip.

tower = McIlvaine ... always ready with the analysis.

MFINY = Derrick ... mostly fires up wild bricks.

muguru = Vander ... pouts when he doesn't get what he wants.

MikeDeanesDarkGlasses = Mike Hunt ... loser who only shows up when he has something to beyotch about.

Sorry if I left some folks out ... I'm exhausted!

Still trying to figure out how anyone could interpret MU82's magnum opus as 'angry'. I think a few of them were reaches, but I never once got 'angry' from it. After all your critiques about other people being too sensitive and not able to take a joke, who knew?

I typically take MU82's posts to often have some humor intended in them, and especially this one fits that bill. I find MU82 to be one of the classier and more level headed guys on here. Never would've crossed my mind that 82 was trying to take any kind of shot at anyone with his list had people not started questioning him for it.
