Title: Markus on the phone with ESPN
Post by: tower912 on January 04, 2018, 08:46:24 AM
Nice interview.   ESPN giving last night's performance the respect it deserves.

From the 'you-can't-make-this-crap-up' file:     Markus interview starts.    An Edward Jones representative knocks on my door for a cold call.   My cell phone rings, that I never get to because of the EJ rep.  (telemarketer)    My land line rings 10 seconds later.   I never pick up because of the EJ rep.     Thank God I am able to rewind live TV.     I would have bleeping come unglued.

Interview was only four and a half minutes. I guarantee if he were in the ACC, they would have given Markus his own show.

To be honest, it was as boring as one of Wojo's interviews.    But it was nice to see the kid get some love.

Jimmy Mac is on Bill Michaels right now, and no lie, Bill just asked Jim to talk about the guys other than Howard and said "Talk about Cheathem, while he's only played 5 games so far, theyve had some injuries, but he could be a big part of this team"


Mac was cordial of course and politely told him he transferred

Please, even if you didn't, please tell me you made that up and it didn't actually happen.  I suppose I don't think of Bill Michaels as an axe murderer, so my opinion of him could theoretically be worse, but I don't have the energy to lower my opinion any more.

When is Tom Oates interviewing him? or does Tom only write about non-Badger players when they're not smart enough to graduate HS early

After Mac hung up he apologized for his mistake that his producer caught, and then he tried to act like it was just a brain fart. He was probably still looking at the season preview sheet he got before the year started

"While he's only played the five games obviously there's been some injuries and some things have gone on this season...."

What a clown.

Were those bitcoins in his pocket, or was he just happy to see you?
